3.00 Credits
(Not offered after Fall 2005 [200610]) The course is designed to study the human interaction with, and effect upon plant, and animal communities, with a focus on conservation, pollution, energy, sustainability, and other contemporary ecological problems. It will include a general study of ecological concepts, an introduction to natural resources, the study of the biotic and abiotic interrelationships, and the energy transfer through food chains and food webs. It will introduce biological and chemical principles as they relate to the environment. The three-credit course consists of three lecture hours per week. Prerequisites: Reading level 7, BIOL 1407, BIOL 1411, or BIOL 1413. (3:3-0)
-
3.00 Credits
(Formerly Biology 231, 2311) This study of the principles of inheritance and variation in plant and animal populations emphasizes Mendelian inheritance, molecular genetics, and population genetics. Prerequisites: BIOL 1406 and 1407 or BIOL 1411 and 1413 or approval of department chair and Reading level 7. (3:3-0)
-
3.00 Credits
(Formerly Biology 245, 2415) This study of chemical and cellular levels of organization focuses on the structure and function of the integumentary, skeletal, muscular, nervous and endocrine systems. Prerequisite: Reading level 7. (4:3-3)
-
3.00 Credits
(Formerly Biology 246, 2416) The structure and function of the cardiovascular, respiratory, digestive, urinary, and reproductive systems. Basic principles of human genetics are included. Prerequisite: Reading level 7. (4:3-3)

3.00 Credits
The course is designed to study the human interaction with, and effect upon, plant and animal communities, with a focus on conservation, pollution, energy, substainability, and other contemporary ecological problems. It includes a general study of ecological concepts, an introduction to natural resources, the study of the biotic and abiotic interrelationships, and the energy transfer through food chains and food webs. It introduces biological and chemical principles as they relate to the environment. It also introduces laboratory and field approaches to the study of the environment. A student may not receive credit for both BIOL 2306 and BIOL 2406. Prerequisites: Reading level 7, BIOL 1406, 1407, 1411, or 1413. (4:3-3)

4.00 Credits
This course is designed to give students a comprehensive, in-depth survey of the field of modern genetics. Genetics is concerned with the study of heredity and the molecular basis of physical traits. The broad scope of the discipline extends from the study of simple molecules (DNA structure and function), to inheritance patterns, to populations of organisms. The course is designed with a lecture and laboratory format, meeting three hours per week for lecture and three hours per week for lab, and as such awards four credit hours. Topics include (but are not limited to) Mendelian and non-Mendelian inheritance patterns, the molecular nature of genes, the physical and chemical nature of DNA, biotechnology, and the applications of these topics for medicine and industry. Prerequisites: BIOL 1406 and 1407, or 1413 and 1411, or approval of department chairman and Reading level 7. At least one semester of college chemistry is strongly recommended. (4:3-3)
-
3.00 Credits
(Formerly Biology 144, 1414) This is a study of microbiology and pathology from the standpoint of cause, symptoms, and prevention of disease. Basic principles of immunological responses by the body in relation to visible pathological symptoms are stressed. This course is primarily designed for the student pursuing a degree as a registered nurse. Prerequisites: BIOL 2401 or 2402 or approval by department chair and Reading level 7. A student may not receive credit for both BIOL 2420 and BIOL 2421. (4:3-3)
-
3.00 Credits
(Formerly Biology 241, 2411) This course focuses on the morphology, physiology, and taxonomy of microorganisms. It also coves the relation of man to microorganisms in agriculture, industry, sanitation, and disease. Prerequisites: BIOL 1406 and BIOL 1407 or BIOL 1411 and 1413, CHEM 1411 and 1412, sophomore standing, and Reading level 7. Some prerequisites may be waived with permission of department chair. A student may not receive credit for both BIOL 2420 and BIOL 2421. (4:3-3)
-
3.00 Credits
This introduction to biotechnology includes career exploration, history and applications of DNA/RNA technology, molecular biology, bioethics, and laboratory safety practices. Prerequisites: Reading level 7, Writing level 7, Math level 7. (3:2-1)
-
3.00 Credits
(Formerly Management Development 132, MGTD 1312, MGMT 1312) This study of the role of the supervisor examines managerial functions as applied to leadership, counseling, motivation, and human skills. Prerequisite: Reading level 4. (3:3-0)
