-
1.00 - 3.00 Credits
The techniques of seminar presentation will be studied by preparing and presenting individual seminars on topics of interest. Enrollment for credit is limited to, and required of, all seniors. (Every semester)
-
1.00 - 3.00 Credits
Students develop and/or assist in research projects in various fields of biology. The study involves literature searching, on and off campus research, and attendance at seminars at other leading universities and scientific institutions. Prerequisite: Consent of instructor. Total credit in BIOL 496 is normally limited to 3 units. (Every semester)
-
1.00 - 3.00 Credits
Training and practice in those areas of biological science of practical importance to the technician, teacher, and researcher. To include, but not be limited to: technical methodology, preparation and technique in the teaching laboratory, and routine tasks supportive to research. Prerequisite: Consent of instructor. Total credit in BIOL 497 is normally limited to 3 units. (Every semester)
-
1.00 - 3.00 Credits
This course offers experience in the practical and experimental application of biological principles. Students will be involved in research projects conducted by agencies and institutions outside the University, such as state parks, zoos, and biological industries. Enrollment is arranged on an individual basis according to a student's interest and background, and is dependent on positions available and faculty approval. A maximum of 3 upper-division units can be earned toward fulfillment of the requirements of the major. (Every semester)
-
3.00 Credits
A course designed for the non-science major that focuses on the major ideas of modern chemistry and the role that chemistry plays in a technological society. The evolution of our understanding of atomic and molecular structure and chemical reactivity will be examined as examples of the scientific method and the very human nature of the scientific endeavor. The role of modern chemistry in both the creation and the solution of societal problems will also receive considerable attention. The problems examined, which may vary in different sections, include: the energy crisis, air and water pollution, global warming, nutrition and food additives, household chemicals, pesticides and agrochemicals, and nuclear power. Two lectures weekly. (every semester)
-
3.00 Credits
A course designed for the non-science major that covers the discovery of DNA as the genetic material, the simplicity of the three-dimensional structure of DNA and the many implications to be drawn from this structure. It explores the concepts involved in recombinant DNA technology and its applications to the pharmaceutical industry, agriculture, forensics, gene therapy and AIDS research. Two lectures weekly. Chem 101 and 111 are not prerequisites. (every semester)
-
3.00 Credits
A laboratory/lecture/discussion class designed to lead students toward an understanding of selected topics in chemistry and physics. The course topics are selected to satisfy the physical science specifications of the science content standards for California Public Schools (K-12) and is intended for liberal studies majors. Two two-hour laboratory sessions per week. (fall semester)
-
3.00 Credits
A course designed for the non-science major that focuses on the major ideas of modern chemistry and the role that chemistry plays in a technological society. The lecture content is similar to that in Chem 101 (above); however, this course includes a laboratory that will satisfy the general education requirement for a laboratory course in the natural sciences. Two lectures and one laboratory/discussion weekly. (spring semester)
-
3.00 Credits
A two semester lecture course which introduces the fundamental principles of modern chemistry. These principles, which include atomic and molecular structure, periodicity, reactivity, stoichiometry, equilibrium, kinetics, thermodynamics, bonding, acid-base chemistry, redox chemistry, and states of matter, will be used in and expanded upon in more advanced courses. Three lectures weekly. Prerequisite: Math 115 or a passing score on the Math Level 1 Placement Exam. Co-requisite: Chem 151L, 152L (every year)
-
1.00 Credits
A laboratory course which introduces the concepts and techniques of experimental chemistry. Chem 151L has one laboratory period that meets bi-weekly. Chem 152L has one laboratory period that meets every week. Prerequisite: concurrent registration in Chem 151-152 or consent of instructor. (every year)
