1.00 Credits
A series of environmental topics designed to provide science and non-science students with an introduction to different environmental concerns or techniques. Topic varies from year to year. One hour lecture or two hours laboratory.
-
3.00 Credits
Specifically designed for the non-science major. Serves as a field introduction to the ecology of the natural terrestrial habits of the Northeast. Features an interdisciplinary focus on environmental pressures on different 130 forest types and "old fields." Stresses familiarity with plants and animals from these habitats. Three hours lecture and three hours lab. Field trips required . Lab Fee; see fee schedule.
-
4.00 Credits
Examines cellular structure, function, and metabolism. Topics include biogenetics, protein structure and function, enzymes, cellular organelles and metabolism, nucleic acids, chromosomes, cellular communication and transport. Laboratory techniques microscopic methods, electrophoresis of proteins and DNA, spectrophotometric assays and cell culture techniques. Three hours lecture, two hours lab. Prerequisites: BIOU 101 & BIOU 102 OR Instructor's permission. Lab Fee; see fee schedule.
-
4.00 Credits
Presents the organization of the human body to illustrate the interrelationships between form and function at the gross and microscopic levels of organization. The clinical significance of histology will be emphasized in both lecture and laboratory. Since anatomical structures are adapted to perform specific physiological functions, a precise understanding of structure and function is best achieved through an integrated study. BIOU 203 deals with cell physiology, membrane dynamics, followed by tissue, integumentary, skeletel, muscular and nervous systems, including sensory organs and sensory receptors. Clinical considerations and unifying themes such as homeostasis will be emphasized throughout. Three hours lecture, three hours lab. Prerequisite: BIOU 101M and BIOU 102M or equivalent. Lab Fee; see fee schedule.
-
4.00 Credits
An introduction to the processes of life, the concepts of biological study, the relationships of the physical/chemical/biological world, and an overview of the anatomy and physiology of representatives of the zoological groups. Three hours lecture, three hours laboratory. Field trip may be required. Prerequisite: BIOU 101M. Lab Fee; see fee schedule.
-
4.00 Credits
Introduces genetics at classical, molecular, and population levels. Topics include Mendelian genetics, linkage analysis, mutation, dominance relationships, quantitative genetics, the structure and properties of DNA, transcription, translation, recombination, DNA synthesis, and population genetics models. Laboratory exercises illustrate principles discussed in the lecture. Three hours lecture, two hours lab. Lab Fee; see fee schedule.
-
4.00 Credits
The course considers the philosophy and sociology of science, their interaction and impact on the methodology of experimental design, implementation, data analysis and ethical issues in Biological research. Student teams design and implement small experiments, statistically analyze their data, perform peer reviews, write a short research paper, give in-class presentations, keep lab notebooks, and prepare an end-of-semester research proposal. Prerequisites: MATHU 262. Three hours lecture, three hours laboratory. Lab Fee; see fee schedule.
-
4.00 Credits
Considers the interactive nature of watersheds as they affect chemical, physical, and Biological processes of the stream. A research approach is used with active participation on a stream research or monitoring project. Three hours lecture, three hours lab. Field trips required. Prerequisites: CHEMU 216. CHEMU 242 is helpful but not required. Lab Fee; see fee schedule.
-
3.00 Credits
Designed to integrate general principles of education and the process of teaching Biology on a secondary level. Special focus on preparing and conducting laboratory experiments. Offered as needed. Required of all who seek secondary certification in Biology.
-
4.00 Credits
The course covers the cardiovascular, lymphatic, respiratory, digestive, urinary, reproductive and endocrine systems. In considering each system, structure and function are studied concurrently. It is essential that as study of the human body progresses, parts will be integrated into the whole. Clinical considerations and unifying 131 themes such as homeostasis will be emphasized throughout both semesters. Three hours lecture. Three hours lab. Prerequisite: BIOU 203 with a C- or better. Lab Fee; see fee schedule.
