-
4.00 Credits
An introductory survey course emphasizing microbial structure, chemistry and genetic variation, growth and control of microorganisms, antibiotic control and resistance, classification, host-microbe interactions, and microorganisms and the diseases they cause. (Three-hour lecture, two-hour lab.) Prerequisite: BI 221S-222S or 223S-224S.
-
3.00 Credits
An introductory survey course with emphasis on basic biochemical processes. Includes the molecular structure and importance of organic functional groups, the molecular structure and function of carbohydrates, proteins, lipids, and nucleic acids. Prerequisite: CH 221S.
-
4.00 Credits
A coiurse in Microbiology that will emphasize its molecular aspects that will include respiration, cellular structure, cellular signaling, protein synthesis, prokaryotic genetics, and relataed molecular processes. This will be a requisite course for all Biology Majors in lieu of the former BI 225. Prerequisites: BI 221 and BI 222; CH 221 and CH 222
-
3.00 Credits
This course focuses on the relationship between normal body functioning and the physiological changes that occur as a result of diseases. Mechanisms of disease across the life span will be explored. Topics include alteration in cell physiology, inflammation, hypersensitivity, cancer, acid-base regulation and a system-by-system approach of major disease states.
-
4.00 Credits
Intended primarily for Biology majors, this course emphasizes the cellular structure of biomolecules; proteins, carbohydrates, lipids, and nucleotides; enzyme properties and mechanisms; metabolic pathways; and the flow of biological information. (Three-hour lecture, two-hour lab.) Prerequisities: BI 221S, 222S; CH 331S, 332S.
-
3.00 Credits
An in-depth study of the human body as a machine for the performance of work. Encompasses biomechanics, musculoskeletal anatomy, and neuromuscular physiology. Laboratory exercises will help the student gain insight into the nature and complexity of human motion. Prerequisite: BI 223S-224S.
-
3.00 Credits
Basic neuroanatomy and neurophysiology terminology. Functional properties of the nervous system with emphasis on sensory, motor, and integrated processes; mechanisms of diseases affecting the nervous system; neurophysiological principles of feedback on motor learning. Prerequisite: BI 223S-224S.
-
4.00 Credits
Detailed examination of the microscopic structure of animal (mainly human) tissues and organs, and study of the important functions of various specific tissues. Laboratory work focuses on examination, through standard compound microscopy, of prepared slides of various animal tissues; representations of selected electron micrographs will also be analyzed. (Three-hour lecture, two-hour lab.) Prerequisites: BI 221S-222S or 223S-224S.
-
4.00 Credits
Exploration of the internal structure, compartmentalization, and mechanics of the eukaryotic cell. Study includes the dynamics of the plasma membrane, compartmentalization of the cell, the cytoskeleton, protein targeting vesicular trafficking, and regulation of cellular processes through intracellular signaling parthways. Both the regulation and the mechanics of normal cell division are considered in addition to the role of abnormal cell division in cancer. Prerequisites: BI 221S , 222S, 223S, 226S.
-
3.00 Credits
The students will have an opportunity to work with faculty on ongoing research projects that will lead to possible publication opportunities. Students will contract with the professor for the number of hours of research in which theywill participate and the credit will be based on the number of hours of research in which they will participate and the credit will be based on the number of hours the student and professor agree to in the contract. Students can participate dirctly in the professor's research or may opt, with the permission of the professor, to pursue their own original research. Pre-requisite: Completion of the freshman year science courses-Gen Biology I and II; Chemistry I and II Students can earn 1-3 credits depending on the hours agreed to in the contract
