4.00 Credits
BIO 141 is the first part of a two part Medical Microbiology course for MLT students. It examines the microbial world with emphasis on the morphology and biological properties of bacteria and their relationship to man and the clinical laboratory. It enables the student to understand how infectious disease is spread, how bacteria are isolated and identified, how microbes are controlled and the nature and use of antibiotics. The procedures used in the identification of medically important bacteria are stressed. This course is subject to a course fee.
-
4.00 Credits
An introduction to the study of life as it applies to all organisms. Primary emphasis is given to biological chemistry, energy & metabolism, cell structure & function, cell reproduction and the classical and molecular aspects of genetics. Laboratory requires hands on experiments related to the course content. This course is subject to a course fee.
-
4.00 Credits
Emphasis is placed on the diversity of life from an evolutionary and ecological perspective. Domains, super groups and kingdoms are discussed from the standpoint of structure, function, metabolism, reproduction, development and evolutionary adaptation. Taxa are compared and contrasted with one another and as they relate to development and ecosystem biology. This course is subject to a course fee.
-
1.00 Credits
This one semester course affords the student and instructor the flexibility to collaborate in creating an individualized plan of learning that builds upon previous course work within the discipline, expands the student's knowledge in an area of interest and/or promotes continued personal development. The course is designed to broaden the scope of the regularly scheduled course offerings within the discipline. A contract for individualized learning is developed collaboratively between the instructor and student and submitted to the Division Dean for consideration. Specific arrangements and details of an independent study are arranged with the specific discipline and facilitated by the discipline director or coordinator. This course is subject to a course fee.
-
4.00 Credits
A course that introduces Immunology, Virology, Mycology, and Parasitology as well as the immunological basis of serological tests and their uses in the diagnosis of infectious and non-infectious diseases. For students of Medical Laboratory Technology. (Laboratory/lecture format) This course is subject to a course fee.
-
4.00 Credits
This course provides students with a 4-credit lab science focusing on the interactions of organisms with their biotic and abiotic environments. It will include an overview of the various components of population, community and ecosystem-level interactions, a broad survey of the major terrestrial and aquatic biomes of the world, both local and biosphere-level anthropogenic effects, and restoration ecology. Labs will reinforce important classroom concepts and will include both computer-based mathematical models of species interactions and in-field experiences to acquaint students with the diversity of ecosystem types and ecological processes. This course is subject to a course fee.
-
4.00 Credits
A study of the basic principles and problems of classical, biochemical, and molecular genetics; including Mendelian inheritance, chromosomes, mutation, linkage mapping, DNA structure, gene expression and an introduction to recombinant DNA technology. Laboratory experiments provide an introduction to genetics and molecular biology; including studies of inheritance using organisms such as Drosophila, cloning, gel electrophoresis and the polymerase chain reaction. This course is subject to a course fee.
-
4.00 Credits
This course is designed to acquaint students with the field of biotechnology. Topics will include a history of the biopharmaceutical industry, the drug discovery and development processes, medical biotechnology, forensics and bioremediation. Students will learn basic techniques and instrumentation used in biotechnology labs and the fundamentals of recombinant DNA technology. Issues that impact both the industry and the general population such as the regulation of the pharmaceutical industry, stem cell research, GMO's and bioethics will be examined in this course. This course is subject to a course fee.
-
4.00 Credits
This course will allow students to gain theoretical and practical, hands-on knowledge of the operation, maintenance and calibration of commonly used and specialized laboratory instrumentation. Laboratory procedures will include solution preparation, aseptic technique, protein separations and assays, electrophoresis and recombinant DNA technology. The students be introduced to the concept of working with good laboratory practices as they pertain to documentation and record keeping. Discussion and implementation of laboratory safety policies will be key components to the entire course. This course is subject to a course fee.
-
2.00 Credits
This course is designed to introduce students to the areas of medical biotechnology and molecular diagnostics. Students will learn the theory behind these areas and will practice molecular techniques used in medical laboratories. This course is subject to a course fee.
