-
3.00 Credits
An introduction to the physiology and pathophysiology of the cardiovascular system, including pharmacological treatments of disease processes. The class includes lectures, group workshops, and journal article discussions. (Fall). Liberal arts. Prerequisite: BIO401 or BIO421.
-
3.00 Credits
Application of ecological theory to managing earth's living resources, with explicit reference to social, political, and ethical considerations. Biodiversity, metapopulations, and restoration biology are explored through lectures, journal readings, and case studies that develop professional skills and judgment. One required weekend field trip. (Annually). Liberal arts. Prerequisite: BIO304 or ENV304.
-
15.00 Credits
A full-semester research course covering aspects of cellular and molecular biology. The focus of the course will highlight the research interests of the participating faculty. Skills, techniques and instrumentation required for the semester's research are introduced and covered. Success in research requires the ability to ask the right questions and recognize important information obtained through experimentation. This program embraces the essence of scientific method and fosters acquisition and application of knowledge to problem-solving, formation and testing of hypotheses and collection and analysis of results through observation and experimentation. Course instruction includes participation of visiting scientists. Open to all science students regardless of major. (Spring). Liberal arts. Approved AWR. Prerequisites: BIO305, CHE112, junior standing.
-
1.00 - 6.00 Credits
Undergraduate project individually arranged by student and faculty sponsor. (Fall - Spring). Liberal arts.
-
1.00 - 3.00 Credits
Planning, preparation, class demonstration and teaching in various biology laboratory sections. May not be repeated. (Fall - Spring). Liberal arts. Prerequisites: senior standing, permission of the instructor and chairperson, a minimum 2.5 GPA.
-
1.00 - 12.00 Credits
Undergraduate project individually arranged by student and faculty member. (Fall - Spring). Liberal arts.
-
4.00 Credits
An exploration of the diversity of plant life on earth. All major higher plant groups are covered, but the primary focus is on the families of flowering plants. Students will learn to recognize the characteristics of the major families while learning about their distributions, natural history, evolutionary relationships, and ethnobotanical uses. Late-semester field trips will focus on local representatives of families covered in class. Students who have received credit for BIO310 may not receive credit for BIO510. (Every other spring semester). Liberal arts.
-
3.00 Credits
A study of pharmacological treatments of cardiovascular disease processes, based on the physiology and pathophysiology of the cardiovascular system. This will include classical pharmacology (dose/response relationships, radioligand binding studies), receptor pharmacology, hemodynamics (cardiac output, vascular resistance, etc.) and major disease processes (e.g., hypertension, arteriosclerosis, and congestive heart failure). The class includes lectures, group workshops, and journal article discussions. Students who have received credit for BIO424 may not receive credit for BIO525. (Every other Fall). Prerequisite: BIO401 or BIO421.
-
3.00 Credits
Topics of current interest in biology which are not covered extensively in other biology courses. Three lecture (1 hour periods, or one laboratory (3 hours) period or the equivalent thereof weekly for the full semester. Students who register for BIO587 will be required to complete additional course work beyond the requirements of BIO387. (Fall/Spring). Prerequisite(s): BIO101, BIO102.
-
2.00 - 6.00 Credits
Graduate research program leading toward a dissertation.
