3.00 Credits
An interdisciplinary approach to environmental problems emphasizing humanity's role and responsibility in the stewardship of biological resources. Prerequisite: one general education science laboratory course. May be applied toward the general education nature requirement but not toward the Biology major. F 2009. (2 credits)
-
4.00 Credits
Courses and seminars on special topics offered for general education credit at the discretion of the department, including genetics, biotechnology, environmental issues, and bioethics. One two-hour or four-hour course may apply toward the general education nature requirement. Students may register, with instructor's approval, for one additional hour in a two-hour or four-hour general education biology course to meet state teacher certification requirements. Not open to Biology majors. Prerequisite: junior standing and one general education science laboratory course. Offered at HoneyRock: Basic Ecology. (1-4 credits)
-
3.00 Credits
An interdisciplinary consideration of ethical issues in the biological and health sciences with an emphasis on those related to medicine, including issues in biotechnology. Taught jointly with the Philosophy Department. Prerequisites: Science and Philosophy general education requirements. Can be taken as a Diversity requirement. F 2009. Diversity course. (2 lin)

3.00 Credits
Continuation of BIOL 331, with an examination of the lymphatic, immune, respiratory, digestive, renal, and reproductive systems. Three lectures, three hours laboratory. Prerequisite: BIOL 331. S 2010.
-
3.00 Credits
Studies of enzyme kinetics and mechanisms by which pharmacological and natural drugs affect the human body. Focus will be given to pathologies of the physiological systems covered in BIOL 321 or BIOL 331/332 and the molecular mechanisms of drug treatment. Three hours lecture; three hours laboratory. Laboratory time will include experimental demonstrations and primary scientific journal article discussions. Prerequisites: BIOL 321 or 332; CHEM 342. Consult current year's course offerings.
-
3.00 Credits
Designed to provide an introduction to the concepts and current research literature in neurobiology. Topics include nervous system structure and function at the molecular, cellular, and system levels. Emphasis will be on vertebrate nervous systems with reference to less complex systems to illustrate specific functions and principles. The implications of our understanding of consciousness from both a biological and theological perspective, including the relationship between body, mind, soul, and spirit will be discussed. Class sessions include lectures, discussions, and student presentations of current research papers. Prerequisite: BIOL 241. Alternate years. (2 credits)
-
3.00 Credits
