  • 4.00 Credits

    This course teaches the basic principles of organismal, population, community, and ecosystem ecology, with an emphasis on applied ecology. The course is designed so that at the conclusion of the course students will have an appreciation and understanding of the principles of ecology and be able to: (1) explain the various biotic and abiotic forces acting on an organism in its natural environment, (2) determine the importance of these forces under varying conditions, and (3) predict how human activities may alter the effects of these forces. The lab portion of this course reemphasizes lecture concepts and offers hands-on experience with the concepts in the lab and/or field setting. (Prerequisites: BIOL 1100 or BIOL 1101 or BIOL 1102 or BIOL 1220).
  • 4.00 Credits

    This is a semester-long, lab-intensive course for students currently employed in or ultimately seeking employment in a clinical or research laboratory with a health care focus. This course is specifically designed for students in Biotechnology programs at RCTC. The goal of this course is to provide the student with both a conceptual and practical understanding of basic lab techniques with particular emphasis on developing the skills to perform these specific techniques independently upon completion of the course. (Prerequisites: Grade of "C" or better in CHEM 1127 and BIOL 1220. Other Requirements: College level reading and writing).
  • 4.00 Credits

    This is an introductory microbiology course covering the following topics: prokaryotic cell structure, metabolism, growth, genetics, pathogenesis; viruses; the eukaryotic microbes, fungi and protozoa; epidemiology, control of microbial growth, specific and nonspecific immunity and immune disorders.

  • 4.00 Credits

    This course is one of two introductory courses in biology, offered as an honors course with more development and detailed cellular-based approach to the foundational principles of biology, and it addresses basic life processes at molecular, cellular, tissue, and organismal levels, principles of evolution, and interactions among organisms. One of Phi Theta Kappa's Honors Study Topic themes will unite topics covered in a traditional general biology course such as science and experimentation, cellular structure and function, genetics and inheritance, evolution, and ecology. Through an examination of primary scientific literature and the completion of a multifaceted, original research project, emphasis will be placed on the critical analysis and integration of biological concepts as they connect to the selected theme. This course is the Honors Equivalent of BIOL 1220. (Prerequisites: None).
