-
3.00 Credits
Prerequisite: eight hours of biological sciences. Entomological principles and data collection as evidence in criminal or civil legal cases, such as using insects in death scene investigation, neglect, or abuse; contamination of food products; and subsequent litigation. Lab is a "Death Scene" case study (pig carcass) using forensically important arthropods. Students present data as expert witnesses. (May Intersession)
-
3.00 Credits
Prerequisite: eight hours of biological sciences. Veterinary entomology involves the study of insects and their near relatives, such as ticks, as they relate to the causation of economic loss and transmission of disease organisms in livestock and companion animals. Insect biology, disease transmission, and methods of control will be stressed in lecture. Laboratory emphasizes 1) collection, preservation, and pathogens, and 2) toxicological methods used to control and evaluate insecticides and acaricides. (December Intersession)
-
3.00 Credits
Prerequisite: 1114 and 1121, or Biology 1134. Medical entomology investigates the relationship of insects and other arthropods to the health of humans, domestic animals, and wildlife. Laboratory. (Sp)
-
3.00 Credits
Prerequisite: 2013 or permission of instructor. Animal behavior from an evolutionary perspective. The effects of natural selections on mechanisms underlying behavior and on diversity of behavior among and within species. (F, Sp)
-
2.00 Credits
Laboratory ( Crosslisted with Psychology 3092). Prerequisite: junior standing; concurrent or previous enrollment in 3083.
