  • BIO 300: Biometry

    3.00 Credits
    Albright College

    This course teaches biology students how to design an experiment in a format that leads to a statistical analysis which tests the desired hypothesis. Students learn how to recognize and apply statistical analyses most appropriate for a given data set, focusing on real examples from recent or on-going research. Emphasis is placed on some of the more commonly used statistical methods in biology in order to provide a framework for exploration of more advanced methods. This is an applied course with emphasis on using computer programs effectively. Three hours lecture and two hours laboratory per week. Offered fall semester of odd years.

  • BIO 311: Ecology

    3.00 Credits
    Albright College

    The study of the relationships between animals and plants and their natural environments. Factors shaping the distribution and abundance of organisms, populations and communities are discussed. Specific emphasis is given to factors such as competition, predation, herbivory, mutualism, physiology, climate, energy flow, and biochemical cycles that influence species adaptations and, in turn, patterns of distribution and abundance. The laboratory is designed to provide experience in the field using several techniques for monitoring both plant and animal populations, as well as environmental parameters in a variety of habitats. Three hours lecture and three hours laboratory per week. Offered fall semester. Prerequisites: BIO 201, 202.

  • BIO 315: Watershed Hydrology and Water Resources

    3.00 Credits
    Albright College

    Water is perhaps our most vital resource, yet its availability is often taken for granted. This class covers the principles of hydrologic processes that govern water distribution within a variety of landscapes. The influence of land use (e.g. rural, agricultural, urban) on water availability and quality are addressed, as well as watershed management issues and practices. In the laboratory portion of this course, field techniques are used to quantify hydrologic processes in surface waters, groundwater and wetland soils. Water quality is also assessed within lake and river environments. Modern tools, such as Geographic Information Systems (GIS), are utilized to connect landscape properties to water availability and quality. Three hours lecture and three hours laboratory per week. Offered fall semester of odd years. Prerequisite: EVS 101 (BIO 202 is recommended)
