A survey course of major topics in Biology with an emphasis on current topics. This course will explore the practical impact that modern biological concepts have on our lives. It will focus on current relevant topics in Biology and may include (but is not limited to) cell function, genetics, infecti
An introduction to the basic principles of biology. The course covers the chemistry of the cell, cell structure and function, cell division, genetics and some evolution. The laboratory is designed to enhance lecture and to develop investigative skills. (3 hours of lecture, 2 hours of lab per week) Fulfills ope
An evolutionary survey of living organisms. Topics include life's beginnings and unicellular organisms, fungi, plants, invertebrates and vertebrates and how they evolved. Laboratory includes dissection of selected species of the representative phyla. Fulfills open, liberal arts, labor
This is the first semester of a two-semester course which studies the basic principles of biology. It is designed for those students pursuing a major in the life sciences. This course examines the cellular basis of life from an evolutionary perspective. Topics include the chemistry, structure and function of the cell, genetics, as well as
This is the second semester of a one-year course. The first half of the semester will concentrate on biodiversity through the evolution of unicellular organisms, fungi, plants, vertebrates, and invertebrates. The second half of the semester will involve the comparative study of physiological adaptation
This course covers scientific discoveries that have changed the world and impacted society in many great ways. Students will explore who gets credit for these amazing breakthroughs and discuss several major themes in Biology that have led to new technologies, medications, and applications, with a focus on DNA, chromosomes, genes and heredity.

An introductory course in the comparative anatomy of the mammalian body to include domestic animals and man. Emphasis is placed upon the normal anatomy and physiology with references made to deviation from the norm which might constitute
This course is a continuation of BIO207 . Emphasis is placed on normal mammalian anatomy and basic physiology with references made to deviation from the norm which might constitute a disease state. (3 hours of lecture, 2 hours of lab per week)
From Darwin’s theory of natural selection to evolutionary developmental biology. The course will cover evolution in the context of ecology,
This is the first semester of a one-year course that studies the human body. It is primarily designed for those students pursuing majors in the health professions. Topics include tissues, and the skeletal, muscular, and nervous systems including the organs of special sense, and a review of basic chemistry and cellular structure and function. Lab
Continuation of Anatomy and Physiology 1. Topics include the digestive, respiratory, urogenital, and circulatory systems and the endocrines. Laboratory work is designed to supplement the lecture material and includes dissection of the fetal pig. Fulfills open, liberal arts, and with BIO211
A study of viruses, bacteria, protozoans, and the lower fungi with special emphasis on their environmental and medical implications. The course considers the characteristics, ecology, control and impact on humans. The laboratory concentrates on the development of aseptic techniques and the culturing, enumerating, and ide
