Prerequisites: Must be admitted to TED. (F, Sp, SS)
-
2.00 Credits
The course will be an investigation of principles of transmission and expression of genetic information in humans. Role of hereditary factors in development of normal and pathologic human traits will be examined along with discussion of recent and potential advances in genetics research, their implication for the future of the human species and ethical considerations regarding their implementation. Prerequisite: BIOL 100 or 150.(F, alternate years)
-
3.00 Credits
This course addresses the science of HIV and AIDS, including the biology of viruses, the immune system, epidemiology, and treatments. It also examines the personal and societal implications of HIV infection, and the role of biological, social and political factors in the spread and prevention of HIV in the U.S. and globally. (Sp)
-
3.00 Credits
This course incorporates the basic principles of plant systematics: the study of the diversity of plants and their identification, naming, classification and evolution. Included in this course are plant groups-algae to flowering plants. Students will be expected to make identifications to specified taxonomic levels and relate organisms to ecology and economy of nature and man as well. Special course fee is required. Prerequisite: BIOL 210. (F,alternate years)
-
3.00 Credits
This course is an introduction to the study of plant diseases. Students will study the general characteristics, classification, life cycles and control measures of representative groups of plant pathogens. The course also explores the epidemiology and genetics of plant disease as well as the impact of biotechnology on the field of plant pathology. Special course fee is required. Prerequisite: BIOL 150, and BIOL 210 or CROP/HORT 161. (F)
-
4.00 Credits
Students will examine morphology, metabolism and systematic relationships of bacteria and other microorganisms and their role in agriculture, industry, sanitation and disease. Microbial genetics and the role of microbes in genetic engineering will be discussed. Prerequisite: BIOL 150; BIOL 240 and CHEM 121,122 are recommended. Special course fee is required. (F,Sp)
-
3.00 Credits
This course is based on the study of insect structure, development, taxonomy, and human-arthropod interactions. The lab focuses on principles of sampling and identification of insects. Prerequisite: BIOL150. Special course fee is required. Students should arrange to receive collecting instructions and check out an insect net for the summer prior to taking the class. (F)
-
4.00 Credits
This course includes the anatomical components and physiological mechanisms of organ systems (skeletal, articular, muscular, nervous, sensory, endocrine) of the human organism. Importance is placed on integration of anatomy and physiology, interrelationships of systems, and homeostatic control. The course will provide a solid foundation for students interested in pursuing a career in the medical sciences and biological research. Prerequisite: BIOL 230 (F)
