1.00 Credits
Students take this course in the senior year. The course requires students to attend regularly scheduled department seminars. Students read research articles to prepare themselves for seminars and are required to submit written summaries and critiques from these seminars. Students also review core concepts from ecology, evolution, cell and molecular biology, as well as genetics to prepare themselves for the Biology Department's comprehensive qualifying exam, taken as partial fulfillment of the requirements for this course. Prerequisites of BIO 107, 108, 109, and 110 are required.
-
3.00 Credits
Basic concepts of genetics are used as a starting point for topics such as the nature of inherited conditions, genetic predisposition and its interpretation and genetic interventions. The course will include classical genetic approaches as well as basic molecular concepts of gene action, population genetics and advances such as DNA fingerprinting, gene chip analysis and manipulation of gene expression. In introductory course for majors and non-majors. Prerequisites of BIO 7,8 or BIO 103,104 are required.
-
3.00 Credits
This course covers fundamental principles of data organization, inferential statistics and correlation analysis with specific reference to their use in biological and medical research. Not open to students who have completed or are taking MTH 19 or MTH 23. Same as MTH 41.
-
4.00 Credits
An introduction to biodiversity and the basic evolutionary and ecological principles underlying the ways in which populations, communities, and ecosystems function. Topics such as population growth, natural selection, animal behavior, and food webs will be covered. Three hours lecture, three hours laboratory. Pre requisite of BIO 1 is required
-
4.00 Credits
This course is a study of the basic functions and mechanisms of action of tissues, organs, and organ systems. Emphasis is placed on homeostatic processes and the physiological adaptations to environmental factors. Three hours lecture, three hours laboratory. Prerequisites of BIO 107, 108, 109, and 110 are required.
-
4.00 Credits
This course is a study of nucleic acid and protein structures, and complex aggregates such as collagen, chromatin, and viruses. Basic concepts in DNA replication, DNA repair, transcription, translation, gene regulation, gene exchange and rearrangement including recombinant DNA technology. Two hours lecture, four hours laboratory. Prerequisites of BIO 107, 108, 109, and 110 are required.
-
3.00 Credits
Several topics, such as genetics, immunology, cell biology, virology, and chemical pollution of the environment, are treated within the context of their relevancy to investigating and understanding the nature of cancer. Prerequisites of BIO 107, 108, 109, and 110 are required.
-
4.00 Credits
This course covers the structure and function of the tissues and organs of the body as revealed by microscopic analysis. Three hours lecture, three hours laboratory. Prerequisites of BIO 107, 108, 109, and 110 are required.
-
4.00 Credits
This course covers the developmental processes of animals from game to genesis to establishment of the principal organ systems. Laboratory includes study of frog, chick and pig development. Three hours lecture, three hours laboratory. Prerequisites of BIO 107, 108, 109, and 110 are required.
-
3.00 - 4.00 Credits
Different faculty members will cover different topics in cell or molecular biology in various semesters in lecture or seminar format. The specific topic will be announced in advance and the student may take the course only once. Three hours lecture when offered for three credits; three hours lecture, three hours laboratory when offered for four credits. Prerequisites of BIO 107, 108, 109, and 110 are required.
