-
4.00 Credits
considers cellular and humoral responses to infection and disease, including mechanisms of antibody formation, structure of antibodies, consequences of antigen antibody interactions, cell mediated immunity, histo compatability, tumor immunology, and autoimmune disease. Three lecture periods and one three hour laboratory meet per week. Prerequisite: Grade of "C" or higher inBIOL 211.
-
4.00 Credits
addresses molecular and evolutionary genetics, linkage and mapping, chromosomal aberrations, extranuclear inheritance, genetic interaction, as well as current genetic research and its application. Three lecture periods and one two hour laboratory meet per week. Prerequisite: Grade of "C" orhigher in BIOL 124/5.
-
4.00 Credits
will experimentally investigate the effects of water, nutrients, and light on plant growth and development. The topics will be studied at the molecular, cellular and environmental levels. Three lecture periods and one three hour laboratory meet per week. Prerequisites: Grade of "C" or higher in BIOL 331and CHEM 322/3.
-
3.00 Credits
is a survey of the physiological and metabolic actions of selected endocrine glands. Strong emphasis is placed on mammalian physiology and the biochemistry of hormones. Prerequisites: Grade of "C" or higher in BIOL 352, CHEM 322/3 or consent of instructor.
-
4.00 Credits
acquaints the student with the dynamics of ecological relationships between man, animals, plants, and the environment. The laboratory will include field experiments in representative ecosystems. The class will meet for three hours of lecture and one three hour laboratory per week. Additionally, some weekend fieldwork will be required. Prerequisite: Grade of "C" or higherin BIOL 126/7.
-
3.00 Credits
is for students preparing to teach in junior and senior high school (6 12). Students will develop methods and techniques of teaching biology, such as use of live and preserved organism in the lab, teaching in the field, applications of the scientific method, use of A.V. materials, questioning and listening skills, lecture and small group techniques and assessment procedures. Professional growth will also be discussed. Students will be required to demonstrate an understanding of the various skills needed for teaching biology. The course requires an in class presentation and videotaping for self observation, and evaluation. (40 clock hours of clinical experience required.) Prerequisites: EDUC 210 and EDUC 220, EDUC 391.
-
3.00 Credits
provides a capstone experience for senior biology majors that can be used in place of BIOL 411 and BIOL 412. Students will work within a theme provided by the instructor (for example: ecological biology, biodiversity of Illinois communities, bioethics, and molecular biology) to demonstrate critical thinking skills, an ability to synthesize scientific literature, an understanding of the scientific process, and the ability to communicate biological concepts in writing and oral presentations. Prerequisite: Senior biology major.
-
1.00 Credits
acquaints the student with research and reference facilities and offers the opportunity for independent research. Successful completion of thesis proposal, outline and bibliography are required before advancing to BIOL 412. Prerequisite: Senior biology major.
-
2.00 Credits
is a continuation of BIOL 411. Students prepare and complete their thesis under the supervision of a faculty advisor. Students also prepare for the oral presentation of their research at the end of the semester. Prerequisite: BIOL 411. Required of Biology Fellows.
