  • 4.00 Credits

    Prerequisites: BIOL 01204 An in-depth study of animal behavior under natural conditions, this course deals with the major theories of innate behavior.
  • 4.00 Credits

    Prerequisites: BIOL 01204 This upper level lecture and laboratory course provides an in-depth study of animal tissue. It includes the examination and identification of specific cells, tissues and organs. The students will develop laboratory skills in cytological and histological techniques. The relationship of histology to cell biology, physiology and pathology will be emphasized.
  • 4.00 Credits

    Prerequisites: BIOL 01204 This course is a senior-level zoology course designed to introduce students to the fundamental aspects of the biology of the major groups of fishes. Topics to be discussed in class include taxonomy and systematics of the major groups of fishes, a survey of modern fishes, their basic structure and function, behavior, and ecology. Laboratory exercises are designed to introduce students to current methods, approaches, and topics; field exercises are designed to survey the diversity of fishes and their habitats in New Jersey and nearby states.
  • 3.00 Credits

    This course introduces and/or develops research techniques used in biological research. Research is performed in collaboration with one or more faculty in an area of specialization of the faculty. Emphasis will be placed on developing research skills, developing technical writing skills, and the development of skills needed for scientific presentations. Up to three credits from this course may be counted towards the major; additional credits may count as free electives.
  • 4.00 Credits

    Prerequisites: BIOL 01204 This laboratory course considers the biology of plants. It is a broad survey of plant nutrition, physiology, development, anatomy, morphology, reproduction, evolution and ecology. An emphasis is placed on the structure and function of plants and the relevance of plants to humanity and the global environment.
  • 4.00 Credits

    Prerequisites: BIOL 01204 This laboratory course considers the patterns of plant diversity and the processes that generate and maintain plant diversity. Several types of diversity are assessed for each of the major groups of plants, including diversity in morphology, physiology, evolution, ecology and human economy. Students who complete this course will have a better understanding of the types and sources of plant diversity, and the role of human and nonhuman factors in affecting plant diversity. Instructor's permission to enroll is required for students who have not completed Introductory Botany (BIOL 02.200)
  • 4.00 Credits

    Prerequisites: BIOL 01204 This laboratory course is an exploration of the local flora in terrestrial communities, from the shore to the Pine Barrens. The emphases of this course are plant communities and the identification of plants. It also provides an overview of plant conservation and the features of plants that determine their population dynamics. The focus of the laboratories is several all-day field trips. Offered during summer sessions.
  • 3.00 Credits

    Prerequisites: BIOL 01204 and CHEM 07200 This course will cover the principles and factors concerned with development of plants, including nutrition, water relationships, photosynthesis, chemosynthesis, reproduction, and growth.
  • 4.00 Credits

    Prerequisites: BIOL 01204 This course covers topics in the area of study concerned with the physical, chemical, biological and ecosystems processes in creeks, streams and rivers (so-called lotic environments or related running waters). The course has a strong laboratory component with hands-on research in an effort to understand local stream ecology.
  • 4.00 Credits

    Prerequisites: BIOL 01204 This laboratory course deals with the anatomy and physiology of invertebrate animals, the value and significance of non-chordate animals and an understanding of their life processes.
