Example topics include marine fossils, seashore ornithology, marine science and education in the K-12 classroom, and marine biology field methods. Students should verify with the biology department whether a particular topics course is available for biology option credit. BME 222 Introduction to Mechanics Prerequisites: MAT 127, PHY201 This course introduces the fundamentals of statics, force systems, and structural analysis. Topics include: equilibrium in particulate and rigid body systems, force systems, mechanics of deformation, and statically indeterminate systems. Applications in biology, medicine, and industry will be discussed.

    Prerequisites: BIO 185 (grade of C- or higher) A hands-on research experience under the supervision of a professor. This experience culminates in the production of a final product, the specific details of which are at the discretion of the advisor. Examples of appropriate final products include, but are not limited to, significant data analysis, a paper, or a poster. All final documents must be archived by the Department of Biology. May be taken for credit more than once. Only one course unit of research courses (BIO 393, 394, 399, 493, 494) can count as a biology option course.
