9.00 Credits
9 HOURS: 3 HOURS LECTURE, 6 HOURS LABORATORY; 4 CREDITS Building on the knowledge and skills acquired in Molecular Biology I (BIO 412), this course provides an in-depth treatment of special topics and techniques. Lecture topics include the regulation of the cell cycle, signal transduction, cancer, genetic control of development, and bioinformatics. Special emphasis is placed on forensic DNA analysis. Laboratory experiments introduce advanced experimental techniques including expression vectors, RNA isolation, Northern blotting, PCR-STR analysis of simulated “crime scene samples” and DNA database construction. Prerequisites: ENG 102 or ENG 201, and BIO 412
-
3.00 Credits
3 HOURS, 3 CREDITS Independent study with a member of the faculty, open to students in the John Jay College of Criminal Justice Cooperative Education Program. Individual conferences with the faculty sponsor, readings appropriate to the agency placement and an analytical essay or research paper. (Off ered every semester for students selected to participate in Cooperative Education with participating federal law enforcement agencies.) Prerequisites: ENG 102 or ENG 201, and admission to the Cooperative Education Program.

1.00 Credits
3 HOURS, 1 CREDIT A course in chemistry to prepare students for the level of work covered in CHE 103-104. Instruction will be given in the fundamental concepts of chemistry. Th e course provides the requisite skills needed to solve problems. Open to students who have not had high school chemistry or students recommended by the department. Prerequisite: MAT 103 or the equivalent.

3.00 Credits
7 1/2 HOURS: 3 HOURS LECTURE, 1 1/2 HOURS RECITATION, 3 HOURS LABORATORY; 5 CREDITS Th is is a basic course in chemistry dealing with modern atomic and molecular theory. It introduces the basic properties and reactions of the elements and the compounds, which will be explored in greater detail in General Chemistry II. Laboratory exercises stress principles of qualitative and semi-quantitative experimentation. Th ey will foster a better understanding of chemical principles and ensure that the necessary skills are developed to work in a scientifi c laboratory safely and eff ectively. Th is course is designed for students with a science background and for forensic science and fi re science majors. Regents level high school chemistry is highly desired. Prerequisite: Placement into MAT 141 or higher, or placement into MAT 104 or MAT 105 and a score of 80% or higher on the New York State Chemistry Regents. Students who did not take the Chemistry Regents will need departmental permission.

3.00 Credits
7 ? HOURS: 3 HOURS LECTURE, 1 ? HOURS RECITATION, 3 HOURS LABORATORY; 4 CREDITS Th is is the second half of beginning chemistry. It builds on the basic properties and reactions of the elements and the compounds learned in the fi rst semester of general chemistry and ends with an introduction to organic chemistry. Th e laboratory stresses principles of qualitative and semi-quantitative experimentation and fosters competence in the skills needed to work safely and eff ectively in a scientifi c laboratory. Th is course is designed for students with a science background and for forensic science and fi re science majors. Regents level high school chemistry is desired. Prerequisites: CHE 103, or an average grade of 2.0 or better in CHE 101- 102 or equivalent, and completion of MAT 104 or MAT 105 or equivalent.

3.00 Credits
7 1/2 HOURS EACH: 3 HOURS LECTURE, 1 1/2 HOURS RECITATION, 3 HOURS LABORATORY; 4 CREDITS Introductory study of properties and behavior of organic molecules, including nomenclature, structure and bonding, reaction mechanisms , synthetic methods, and modern spectroscopic techniques for structural analysis. Concurrent laboratory work utilizing modern semi-micro methodology for synthesis, purifi cation and analysis. Prerequisites: ENG 101, CHE 104, which is a prerequisite for CHE 201. CHE 201 is a prerequisite for CHE 202.
-
9.00 Credits
