3.00 Credits
The course will be an in depth exploration of contemporary genomics. This newly emerging field studies the structure, content and evolution of genomes. The analysis of gene regulation at the genome level (transcriptome) is also emphasized. The related disciplines of bioinfomatics and computational biology will be integrated into the course. Applications will focus on the discovery of disease gene alleles and the analysis of genetic determinism in relation to a Biblical anthropology of humaness. Course format will include lectures, critical reading of current research articles and discovery based learning. Spring semester, alternate years. Prerequisites: BIO 319 and BIO 326.

4.00 Credits
The course will teach the electrophysical, cellular, and molecular basis of neuronal signaling. This will serve as the foundation for understanding the neuroscientific bases of thought, mood, learning, memory, and selected diseases. The student will also be challenged to integrate current neuroscientific knowledge with their ethical, philosophical, and theological views of human nature. In the laboratory, the student will perform experiments in electrophysiology using crayfish neuron and muscle preparations. Three hours lecture and three hours laboratory per week. Lab fee $30. Fall semester, odd years. Prerequisites: BIO 319, BIO 326 and PHY 181.

2.00 Credits
A seminar or directed study on an announced topic or set of topics. Credit specified at registration. Repeatable for credit with a new topic.
-
2.00 Credits
A work-study type project either on or off campus, designed to expose the student to an actual workplace experience. Undertaken with the consent, regular guidance and direction of an instructor qualified in the area, and with written permission of the instructor and department chair. A student should spend 45 hours at the workplace site for each semester-hour credit. Internships used for elective credit may be taken credit no credit, but those taken for major or minor requirements must be letter-graded. Normally, internships are limited to juniors and seniors with at least a 2.5 GPA in courses taken in the department in which the internship is taken.
-
1.00 Credits
Specialized study of an area not covered by a regular course. Prerequisite: honors scholar standing or membership in Alpha Chi, and approval by the instructor and the honors program coordinator.
-
4.00 Credits
Individualized advanced study, research, or project development in a clearly defined and limited area not covered by a regular course. The work should be primarily initiated by the student but undertaken with the consent, regular guidance, and direction of an instructor qualified in the area. Prerequisites: junior standing, a GPA of 2.5 or above in departmental offerings, and approval by the instructor and department chair.
-
4.00 Credits
See CCBC Catalog for description. Nursing students only.
-
3.00 Credits
A survey of applications of engineering principles to medical diagnosis treatment of disease, monitoring measurement of physiological function, and rehabilitation replacement of body dysfunction. Specific applications include bioinstrumentation, bioelectricity, biotransport, biomaterials, and biomechanics. Although discussion will focus primarily on the engineering aspects, issues such as patient safety, public policy and regulation, animal experimentation will be discussed as appropriate. Fall semester. Prerequisites: EGR 212, BIO 326
