-
4.00 Credits
Students will identify, understand, and interpret fundamental biological principles such as biodiversity, evolution, ecology, chemical foundations of life, cell structure and function, cellular metabolism, photosynthesis, respiration, cellular reproduction, and classical, human and molecular genetics. Laboratory may include one or more outdoor experiences. Prerequisite: high school chemistry or Corequisites: CHE 1500 or CHE 1530 and MAT 0600 and ENG 1510 (or Eligibility: ENG 1530).

0.00 - 4.00 Credits
Students will study the mechanisms needed to establish normal immunity, as well as the biological problems that can arise in allergies, autoimmunity and chronic inflammation. As such they will learn about diseases from which so many suffer. In addition, during laboratories, students will be engaged in individual research projects to learn invaluable standard operating procedures for laboratory work, like good note keeping, making reagents, etc. The research projects will be used as a vehicle for them to learn the important biotechnology techniques and concepts that have developed out of the field of immunology, as well as to prepare them for an undergraduate research experience should they choose. Special emphasis will be placed on the nexus between immunology, molecular biology and pathophysiology. Prerequisite: BIO 1570 or 2510; eligibility: ENG 1530 and reading score of 80+. J occasionally; C occasionally
-
0.00 - 3.00 Credits
Designed for non-science majors, this course deals with emergency medical problems as they relate to sudden illness, accidents, environmental emergencies, and life threatening situations. Students will learn about legal responsibilities, bleeding, shock, soft tissue injuries, musculoskeletal injuries, syncope, diabetic emergencies, seizures, strokes, poisoning, and alcohol abuse. Successful course completion may possibly lead to American Red Cross certifications in both community CPR, first aid/responding to emergencies, and automatic external defibrillation (AED). Appropriate for non-science majors. Eligibility ENG 1510 or ENG 0430 and Accuplacer 70+ or Asset 37+. Students who have not met the minimum college level of reading (Accuplacer 80/Asset 40) must be coregistered for ENG 0140. Campus and term: J occasionally
