SURI Tier I is part of a larger course whereby students will engage in undergraduate research and participate in activities with the larger interdisciplinary scientific community at JCC. Tier I will focus on those skills needed to be a good technician, for example being able to design, perform and interpret experiments, make reagents, use laboratory equipment, follow safety procedures, keep effective lab notes, etc. Students will also attend a Science Colloquium along with members of the larger scientific community. During these shared times students will read, present and assess scientific literature relevant to the research of participating PIs with an emphasis on the techniques used. At the end of the semester, students will participte in a group presentation whereby Tier I students will display proficiency in explaining the techniques used. Perequisite: 1000 level course relavent to the field (ie BIO 1570 or Intoduction to Biotechnology); Eligibility: ENG 1510 and reading score of 80+

The purpose of this course is to discuss important ideas from modern biology and biotechnology that are used in the media and society in general and relate them to scientific fact. Students will be instructed in scientific method and process as well as the modern technology available to tease apart science fiction from science fact. They will aslo explore biotechnology concepts that relate to real life like forensics, genealogy and deep ancestry. In the process, they will learn the different between discovery-based science and hypothesis-driven and no science at all. Corequisite: ENG 1510 or Eligibility ENG 1530.

Students will study, discuss, and present information related to the global loss of biodiversity. Traditional as well as modern conservation practices will be discussed emphasizing the ways in which the principles of genetics, ecology, and evolutionary biology are being utilized to conserve and protect at risk species and global biodiversity. The growing need for the application of ecological principles to our human role in the environment, including topics such as habitat alteration and fragmentation, introduction of exotic species, the importance of diversity, and extinction will be discussed. Prerequisite: BIO 1570 Campus and term: J occasionally

SURI - Tier II is part of a larger course whereby students will engage in undergraduate research and participate in activities with the larger interdisciplinary scientific community at JCC. Tier II SURI students are advanced students who will be ready to read and interpret literature as well as design, perform and interpret experiments. They will develop skills that any good technician should have (e.g. ability to design and interpret experiments, make reagents, use laboratory equipment, follow safety procedures, keep effective lab notes, etc.) But they will also be expected to understand the scientific relevance of their research. Students will also attend a Science Colloquium along with members of the larger scientific community. During these shared times students will read, present and assess scientific literature relevant to the research of participating PIs. With a keen on their level of education, at the end of the semester, students will participte in a group presentation whereby Tier II students will display proficiency in explaining their results in context of the greater body of knowledge in their field. Prerequisite: 1000 level course relevant to the field (e.g. Bio 1570 or Introduction to Biotechnology) and a 2000 level course relevant to the PIs research
