4.00 Credits
Normal and abnormal body function will be explored using simplified models, flowcharts, classifications and descriptions. Diseases will be surveyed by system, including, where possible, diseases of interest to the students. Students will be exposed to concepts of various basic medical sciences and the scientific bases of disease treatment and prevention. The course is for students wishing to explore biomedical and health sciences. It does not count towards a major or minor in biology. The course includes a two-hour laboratory per week.
-
4.00 Credits
The course is a study of the integumentary, skeletal, muscular, nervous, and endocrine systems in humans. The course is designed for pre-nursing majors and non-science majors. The course will not count toward a biology major or minor. It includes a two-hour laboratory per week.
-
4.00 Credits
The course is study of the circulatory, immune, respiratory, digestive, urinary, and reproductive systems in humans. The course is designed for pre-nursing majors and non-science majors. The course will not count toward a biology major or minor. It includes a two-hour laboratory per week. Prerequisite: BIOL /NURS 1421.
-
3.00 Credits
This course consists of a study of the health fields and the basic structure of medical words including prefixes, suffixes, roots, combining forms and plurals; pronunciation, spelling, and definition of medical terms; emphasis on building a professional vocabulary required for working in the medical field; and a study of the health occupations.
-
3.00 Credits
This course is an introduction to the principles of research in the biological sciences. The course will give the student a foundation in the philosophy of science, the scientific method, data analysis, and report writing. Students will be required to conduct a literature review of a research topic and write a proposal to conduct research on the topic. CHEM 1312/1112 and MATH 1342 strongly recommended. Prerequisite: BIOL 1407.
-
3.00 Credits
Principles of pathophysiology and nutrition are examined in relation to disease and wellness states. Effects of abnormal function are discussed using critical thinking, case studies, and simulations. Prerequisite: Concurrent enrollment in NURS 3311.
-
4.00 Credits
This course emphasizes the integration of structure and function of the integumentary, skeletal, muscle, nervous, and endocrine systems. The course includes a three-hour laboratory per week. Included in the laboratory is the gross anatomy of the human skeleton, cat, sheep brain, and cow eye and the microscopic anatomy of each system. Experiments are performed to demonstrate muscular physiology, human reflex physiology, sensory physiology, and hormonal actions. This is a course for biology or closely related majors. Prerequisite: BIOL
-
4.00 Credits
This course is a continuation of BIOL 2401 with emphasis on the integration of structure and function of the cardiovascular, respiratory, digestive, urinary, and reproductive systems. The course includes a three-hour laboratory per week. Laboratory exercises include dissection of the cat, mammalian heart, and mature pig lungs. Microscopic anatomy of each of the systems is included. Experiments are performed to demonstrate cardiovascular physiology, blood pressure, digestive physiology, urinalysis, gametogenesis, and the principles of human genetics. Prerequisite: BIOL 2401.
-
4.00 Credits
This is an overview of how man relates to the environment. Topics include ecology, energy, populations, natural resources, and pollution. The course includes a two-hour laboratory per week.
-
4.00 Credits
This course is a study of microorganisms especially those that cause human disease. Topics covered are basic microbiology principles; viral, bacterial, and fungal diseases; how the body responds to infections; and antimicrobial treatments. The course is designed for pre-nursing majors and non-science majors. The course will not count toward a biology major or minor. It includes a two-hour laboratory per week. Prerequisites: four (4) hours in general chemistry; four (4) hours in human anatomy and physiology.
