1.00 Credits
1 credit hour Prerequisites: Junior standing and at least 18 hours in Art courses Professional activities and topics in the field of art that prepare the student for issues related to free-lance employment, copyrights, legal & ethical issues, presentation and display techniques, promotion, galleries and museums, professional presentations, and potential Senior Project topics. Class formats include guest speakers, field trips, readings and discussion.
-
3.00 Credits
3 credit hours Prerequisite: Permission of the instructor Individual, advanced study in one of the following areas: drawing, painting, visual communication or photography. Taken after three semesters study in a particular area.
-
4.00 Credits
4 credit hours An introduction to the fundamental principles and concepts of organismal biology. Topics include: a phylogenetic survey of the Kingdoms with emphasis on Plantae and Animalia; a review of Mendelian genetics; and an introduction to the evolution of living organisms through natural selection. Laboratory work supplements and expands lecture topics as well as provides an introduction to scientific observation, use of the microscope, collection and analysis of data, and construction of laboratory reports.
-
4.00 Credits
4 credit hours An introduction to the fundamental principles and concepts of cellular biology. Topics include cellular ultrastructure and physiology; basic biochemistry of the cell; bioenergetics; photosynthesis; and nuclear and cell division. Laboratory work supplements and expands lecture topics, and deals with cellular organization and function as well as biochemical and physiological processes. An emphasis is placed on collection, analysis, and presentation of data.
-
3.00 Credits
3 credit hours A survey of the structure and function of the human integumentary, nervous, skeletal, and muscular systems. An introduction to cells and tissues is included. Laboratory work involves examination of models, mammalian dissections, and the study of skeletons.
-
4.00 Credits
4 credit hours Prerequisite: Biology 217 A survey of the structure and function of the human digestive, respiratory, circulatory, immune, urinary, endocrine, and reproductive systems in humans. Laboratory work involves examination of models, mammalian dissections, and measurement of physiological processes.
-
4.00 Credits
4 credit hours Prerequisite: Biology 115 A survey of genetics which blends classical concepts (Mendelian and population genetics) with modern biochemical and molecular explanations. The course emphasizes gene expression and regulation in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes, non-Mendelian inheritance, and the ethical aspects of genetic engineering. Laboratory work provides opportunities to use classical genetics as well as biochemical and molecular techniques.
-
4.00 Credits
4 credit hours Prerequisite: Biology 113 A study of the basic concepts and fundamentals in ecology and evolutionary biology. Emphasis is placed on the major principles in ecology and the important integrating evolutionary concepts. Major lecture topics include: historical aspects of ecology and evolution, Darwinian evolution, adaptation, natural selection, population ecology, community ecology, physiological and behavioral ecology, and large-scale ecology. The laboratory concentrates on the design and analysis of ecological observations and experiments in the field. Some late afternoon and weekend field trips are required.
-
1.00 Credits
1 credit hour Prerequisite: Biology 221 Topics addressed include experimental design, ethical standards within the profession, primary literature searching and review, data analysis, interpretation of scientific papers, and oral presentations.
-
4.00 Credits
4 credit hours Prerequisites: Biology 221 and Chemistry 122 An advanced study of the structure and function of cells and tissues from plants and animals. The course examines processes of the whole cell and includes bioenergetics, membrane transport, cell signaling, and cell movement as well as developmental processes such as migration of cells and differentiation of cells into the various tissue types. Laboratory work emphasizes the microscopic identification of cells and tissues and culminates in an individualized cell/tissue culturing project.
