Only one independent study course is allowed per semester. Prerequisite- Corequisite Prerequisite: Approval of faculty member and Department Chairperson.
-
0.00 Credits
A preparatory course for students with no previous biology or laboratory science experience and for students needing additional background. Especially for prospective health science students. Register with advisement only. Prerequisite- Corequisite Corequisite: Laboratory
-
3.00 Credits
An introduction to the basic understanding of the anatomy and physiology of human body systems, and anatomic terminology. This semester-long course reviews each of the major body systems. Students will also be introduced to the structures and processes of cells, and various tissue types present in the human body. This course may not be used to substitute for BIO 131/132 for health science students.
-
4.00 Credits
Principles of evolution and ecology as unifying themes in biology. Evolutionary processes and ecological adaptations illustrated by plant and animal diversity. Cellular life processes. Current environmental problems. The laboratory includes physically demanding field trips. Accommodations can be made for students with disabilities.
-
4.00 Credits
Principles of evolution and ecology as unifying themes in biology. The human animal and its systems. Concepts of animal behavior. Classical genetics, current concepts of gene function and human genetics. Organismal growth and development. Current environmental problems. The laboratory includes physically demanding field trips. Accommodations can be made for students with disabilities.
-
4.00 Credits
To give science majors a working foundation of biology and to prepare them for transfer to a four-year institution and upper level biology courses. The biological principles covered include, but not limited to, Ecology, Conservation Biology, and Evolution. The underlying themes of unity and diversity of living organisms will be used to amalgamate the topics covered. Scientific methodology will be emphasized in both laboratory and lecture using current publications to support discussion as well as developing and executing scientific experimentation. Prerequisite- Corequisite Prerequisite: High School Regents Biology and Regents Chemistry.
-
4.00 Credits
A continuation of Principles of Biology I. To give science majors a working foundation of biology to prepare them for transfer to a four-year institution and upper level biology courses. The biological principles covered include, but not limited to: Cellular Structure and Function, Molecular Biology, and Genetics. The underlying themes of unity and diversity of living organisms will be used to amalgamate the topics covered. Scientific methodology will be emphasized in both laboratory and lecture using current publications to support discussion as well as developing and executing scientific experimentation. Prerequisite- Corequisite Prerequisite: BIO 117 or equivalent.
-
3.00 Credits
Explores information about sexual attitudes, relationships, sexual anatomy, contraception, sexually transmitted disease, sexual physiology and dysfunction. Course aims to make students feel more comfortable thinking and talking about sex and to prepare them to make rational decisions about this important aspect of their lives.
-
4.00 Credits
This course presents a challenging science-based nutrition core curriculum that reviews the role of nutrition in health promotion/disease prevention, and provides an overview of the interrelationships between diet, therapeutic nutrition, and various acute/chronic medical conditions. With an emphasis on normal anatomy and physiology and the metabolism of nutrients, the following topics will be studied: the functions and sources of nutrients, digestion, absorbtion, and utilization of food; normal and therapeutic nutrition; and various foods, preferences, and customs, as well as dietary guidelines. Topics relating to dietary policies, procedures and regulations will also be covered. Other topics of student interest will be addressed as they arise.
-
4.00 Credits
Normal structure (gross and microscopic) and function of the skeletal, muscular and nervous systems. Emphasis on physiology in lectures and on anatomy in laboratory, stressing those aspects which have greatest relevance to the student’s curriculum.
