3.00 Credits
Explores the basic biology of the HIV virus, and its effects upon the human body, the magnitude of the global HIV/AIDS pandemic, treatment and prevention of AIDS, and the social, political, economic, and legal issues of HIV/AIDS. Prerequisite: LIFE 1000 or 1010.
-
5.00 Credits
Examines how functional organ systems are coordinated and integrated to establish and maintain health. It considers, among others, the functions of the endocrine and central nervous systems. Prerequisites: C grade or higher in ZOO 3115; and/or a Pharmacy 1 standing.
-
4.00 Credits
Studies and interprets principles of physiology which adapt animals to various environmental constraints. Introduces discipline which has risen between traditional fields of physiology and ecology and pro-vides understanding of animal distribution and survival. Fulfills degree requirements in physiology subsection for the zoology major. Dual listed with ZOO 5190. Prerequisites: LIFE 2020 and one year of chemistry.
-
3.00 Credits
Provides hands-on, capstone-level instruction in multimedia communication for biological science majors. Teaches students to use evidence-based approaches to sharing science beyond academia (e.g. for policy, community-engaged research, science outreach, etc.).
-
3.00 Credits
This course explores major topics of physical oceanography, marine biodiversity and ecology, and human impacts on the ocean. Emphasis is placed on reading, evaluating, and synthesizing primary literature. Dual listed with ZOO 5235. Cross listed with BOT 4235. Prerequisite: LIFE 3400 with a grad of C or better.
-
3.00 Credits
Examines the basic electrical properties of neurons and from there identifies determinants of brain development, how neuronal "circuits" are formed and how these neuronal systems enable the processing of sensory information, coordinated movement, adaptation to the environment, and other complex functions (e.g. sleep, sex). Prerequisite: BIOL 2020.
-
3.00 Credits
Through lecture and discussion of research articles, students learn mechanisms of nervous system development, from the birth and differentiation of neurons to the formation of synapses and circuits. Focus is on classical experiments done in vertebrates (Xenopus tadpole, chick, zebrafish, and mouse) and invertebrates (nematode and drosophila). Prerequisite: ZOO 4280, or graduate standing.
-
5.00 Credits
Integrates concepts of vertebrate ecology with the art of wildlife management, stressing approaches to deal with the inherent uncertainty of managing populations. Strategies to increase or decrease populations of target species, tools used to determine population status (e.g., viability analysis, monitoring, habitat assessment), and ecosystem management approaches. Laboratory included. Dual listed with ZOO 5300. Prerequisites: LIFE 3400, STAT 2050 or 2070, and ZOO 2450.
-
3.00 Credits
Acquaints students with theory and techniques of inland fisheries management.

Dual listed with ZOO 5310. Prerequisite: ZOO 4330.
-
3.00 Credits
Studies anatomy, physiology and classification of fishes, emphasizing classification and identification of Wyoming fishes. Includes laboratory. Dual listed with ZOO 5330. Prerequisite: LIFE 2020.
