-
1.00 Credits
Supervised investigation of a research problem in bioinformatics on a level that may result in a presentation at a scientific meeting. With faculty guidance and consent, a student selects a research question and conducts an independent investigation. Students are encouraged and facilitated in presentation of their findings at a scientific meeting and/or publication in a scholarly journal. Prerequisites: Consent of instructor. (Fall, Spring, Summer)
-
1.00 Credits
A seminar presentation based on the student's own undergraduate research results. The course also requires a written presentation of the seminar according to scholarly standards. Students will be required to take one of the Major Field Achievement Tests as part of this course. Prerequisite: BINF 4147, BINF 4148, senior standing, and the consent of the instructor. (Spring)
-
4.00 Credits
Focuses on the development and application of computational approaches to ask and answer biological questions. Material will be drawn from specific, relevant biological problems including biological sequence analysis, genome sequencing and assembly, biological pattern recognition, analysis of DNA microarray data and biological networks. Three hours of lecture and three hours of lab per week. Prerequisites: BIOL 2334, COSC 3327, MATH 3320. (Spring)
-
1.00 Credits
This lab provides hands-on experience with topics and concepts in BIOL 1308. Prerequisite: BIOL 1308 or registration therein. Concurrent registration is recommended. (Spring)
-
3.00 Credits
An introduction to the fundamental principles of biology through an in-depth study of a specific topic of contemporary interest. In this lecture/discussion course, students will study the specific topic from organizational levels ranging from genetic and cellular to population. Different sections emphasize different topics. Sample topics include animal behavior, the biology of AIDS, the biological basis of human behavior, entomology, cancer biology. In each section, emphasis will be placed on the cell theory as the primary organizing principle throughout biology. Satisfies the science in depth general education requirement. (Fall, Spring, Summer)
-
3.00 Credits
An introduction to the structure and function of living organisms from the molecular and cellular level to major systems. Human biology is emphasized, but systems from other living organisms will be studied. Satisfies the science in depth general education requirement. (Fall, Spring, Summer)
-
3.00 Credits
This is a course in the fundamental principles of biology considering levels of organization from the genes to the organism. Structure and function of animals (primarily human) will be examined. Emphasis is placed on genetics, and strategies developed for hormonal and nervous control mechanisms, internal transport, energy utilization, gas exchange and nutrition. It is recommended to take BIOL 1307 concurrently with BIOL 1107. Intended for students majoring in biology, bioinformatics, biochemistry or kinesiology (pre-physical therapy only), or students fulfilling the requirements for entry into medical, dental or other professional schools in the health sciences. (Fall, Spring)
-
3.00 Credits
This course covers the fundamental principles of biology in the context of the vast diversity that exists. Levels of organization from individuals through populations are explored, stressing ecology and the mechanisms of evolution. It is recommended to take BIOL 1308 concurrently with BIOL 1108. Intended for students majoring in biology, biochemistry or kinesiology (pre-physical therapy only), or students fulfilling the requirements for entry into medical, dental or other professional schools in the health sciences. (Spring)
-
1.00 Credits
In depth study of human anatomy, including all organ systems, as well as the histology of various tissue types. This lab is a co-requisite for BIOL 2303, Human Anatomy. Prerequisites: BIOL 1305, 1306 or 1307.
-
1.00 Credits
This lab complements the material studied in BIOL 2324 and is a co-requisite for that course. In this lab, students study the diversity and physiological processes exhibited in plants in open investigations. Topics for investigation include photosynthetic regulation, genetic structure and expression. A collection through which students master plant morphology and systematics is a major component of the lab. (Spring, odd-numbered years)
