  • BIOL 22010: Hnrs Interm Sem: Biotechnology

    3.00 Credits
    Ithaca College

    This seminar will examine what "biotechnology" is and how it impacts our society. The first half of the course will be devoted to providing students with sufficient understanding of the science of biotechnology to assess the impact of these advances on society. Topics will include the composition of genes, molecular biology, reproduction, cell biology, and immunology. For this part of the course, we will use the text, Bioltechnology: Demystifying the Concepts. The class will also have several readings from current scientific publications, newspapers and other major media sources. Foloowing the general introduction into the science underlying the technology, we will focus on the ethical, financial, political, and sociological impacts of advances in biotechnology in society. Students will research and present on current topics in bioltechnology, such as gene therapy for diseases, genetic engineering in agriculture, drug development for AIDS and cancer and stem cells. In the final segment of the term, groups of students will simulate the work of a congressional subcommittee by making decisions on how to allocate funding for a variety of biotechnology projects.
