Course designed to give students an understanding of the principles of Biology through application of the scientific method. Students will critically examine, evaluate and describe the nature and activities of cells and organisms including their genetics, evolution, ecology, and behavior. Course primarily for non-science majors.

Laboratory course designed to provide hands-on activities that develop basic laboratory skills as students apply the scientific method to critically examine, evaluate and describe the nature and activities of living organisms at the biochemical, cellular, genetic, and organismal levels. Dissection exercises may be a component component of this course.

Human Anatomy and Physiology for Health Science Majors Offered as a One- Semester Course. This course provides a brief introduction to physiological chemistry and physics, a study of of basic cell biology, and a survey of human anatomy and physiology through the study of each organ system. Selected topics of pathology are introduced as appropriate to the audience. This course is not a substitute for anatomy and physiology I (BSC2085) or anatomy and physiology II (BSC2086). Students who have successfully completed anatomy and physiology I (BSC2085) or anatomy and physiology II (BSC2086) with a grade of C or better may not enroll in BSC1084. Additionally, BSC1084 cannot be used as a substitute for BSC2085 or BSC2086,when required for a specific program of study.

This course is designated to introduce non-science major students to the physical, chemical, and biological features of the world ocean and the main groups of living marine organisms that inhabit it. Basic marine ecology will be included.

In this course, students will apply the scientific method to critically examine and explain the natural world. This course will cover molecular biology, cellular biology, genetics, metabolism, and replication.

This course is the first part of a two-semester sequence in which students examine Human Anatomy and Physiology through a systems approach based on the interaction between forma and function, from the microscopic components of cells and tissues to the organismal level. Emphasis is placed on histology and the integumentary, skeletal, muscular, and nervous systems.

A continuation of the Anatomy and Physiology sequence, including the following topics; the circulatory system, the respiratory system, the digestive System, the urinary system, fluid and electrolytes and the reproductive System. CHM 1032, CHM 1040, or CHM 1045 is very strongly recommended (see your program requirements). 3 hours of lecture per week.

Laboratory experiments coordinated with BSC1086, including microscope observation, study of anatomical models and dissection. Dissection exercises included.

This lecture based course provides an introduction to concepts and principles associated with current accepted biotechnological practices in the areas of laboratory safety cell culture techniques, laboratory skills (measurements and calculations), preparation of solutions, use of various instruments and microscopy. In addition, methods of DNA extraction, amplification, gene cloning," nucleic acid and protein electrophoresis and DNA finger printing will be covered.

This laboratory course provides hands-on experience in basic and common biotechnology laboratory techniques in the areas of laboratory safety, culture techniques, laboratory skills (measurements and calculations preparations of solutions, use of various laboratory instruments), and microscopy. In addition, methods in DNA extraction and amplification, gene cloning, nucleic acids, and protein electrophoresis and fingerprinting will be demonstrated.

Students (individually or in a group) will conduct research projects or certain aspects of research projects under the supervision of the instructor. This course is intended to help students acquire skills in applying research principles and obtaining practice in rigorous data collection and reporting. Hours may vary. Permission of Instructor Required.

A course designed to provide training in a students field of study through work experience. Students are graded on the basis of documentation of learning acquired as reported by student and employer. Requires Departmental permission.

Introduces students interested in scientific research to various techniques and software important for data processing and presentation of research data. Students learn to effectively present research to the general public and to the scientific community in written form, such as research proposals, conference presentations, seminars and publications.
