4.00 Credits
An inquiry-based course that covers the fundamental principles of ecology, conservation, and sustainability. Students will have the opportunity to learn through laboratory, field work, and lecture activities. Topics include biodiversity, a survey of biomes, populations, interrelationships in biological communities, ecological succession, energy flow, nutrient cycling, physiological ecology, and human impacts on ecosystems. Meets MnTC Goal 3
-
4.00 Credits
This lecture and laboratory-based course surveys the four unifying principles of biology (evolutionary theory, cell theory, gene theory, and homeostasis) in the context of animal body systems. Content topics include cellular structure, function, and processes; histology; inheritance; biodiversity; natural selection; basic anatomical and directional terminology; and skeletal, muscular, nervous, cardiovascular, respiratory, and digestive systems. The lab component includes application of concepts with an emphasis on observation, the scientific method, and analysis. Dissection of individual organs and whole organisms may be included. This course provides a foundation for students pursuing veterinary-related careers as well as those in non-science majors

4.00 Credits
This course surveys the basic principles of biology. Content topics include fundamental concepts of chemistry, cellular structure and metabolism, inheritance, biodiversity, ecology, and evolution. The lab component includes design and execution of experiments with an emphasis on observation, the scientific method, and analysis and presentation of results. This course provides a foundation for students pursuing health-related careers as well as those in non-science majors. Meets MnTC Goal 3
-
4.00 Credits
This course is the first semester of a two-semester lab-science course intended for students pursuing careers in fitness and allied health fields. Human anatomy and physiology are studied using a body systems approach, with emphasis on the interrelationships between form and function at the gross and microscopic levels of organization. Homeostasis is an integrating theme throughout this course. Content topics include basic anatomical and directional terminology, fundamental concepts and principles of cell physiology, histology, and the integumentary, skeletal, muscular, and nervous systems. Dissection of individual organs and whole organisms may be included. Meets MnTC Goal 3 Prerequisite: BIOL 1500 with a grade of C or better

4.00 Credits
This course is the second semester of a two-semester lab-science course intended for students pursuing careers in fitness and allied health fields. Interrelationships between form and function at the gross and microscopic levels are studied using a body systems approach. Homeostasis is an integrating theme throughout this course. Content topics include immunity, metabolism, fluid balance, development, and the cardiovascular, hematopoietic, respiratory, lymphatic, digestive, urinary, and reproductive systems. Dissection of individual organs and whole organisms may be included. Meets MnTC Goal 3 Prerequisite: BIOL 2000 with a grade of C or better
-
4.00 Credits
This progressive course will focus on microbe classification, disease transmission, pathogenesis and the immune response. Bacterial isolation and identification are common laboratory practices covered. Emphasis will be on microorganisms that cause local and systemic disease in humans with consideration of treatment options as well as infection control and prevention strategies. This course is intended for nursing students and other students pursuing careers in allied health fields. Meets MnTC Goal 3 Prerequisite BIOL1500 with a grade of C or better
-
4.00 Credits
Independent Study Biology
-
3.00 Credits
This course will combine AC and DC theory with a focus on safety and troubleshooting. The course will work with examples and labs based on components and concepts that relate to what would be experienced by the biomedical technician.
-
1.00 Credits
The study of wireless technology used within the medical environment.
-
4.00 Credits
