7 courses with the subject NEUR, each shown exactly as we captured it from the college's catalog, with every element we hold. Where the wording looks broken, that is our reading of the catalog, not the college's text.
NEUR 3100Neurological Diseases, Disorders, and Society4
Goals: To introduce students to the nervous system, with a focus on nervous system dysfunction; to examine the biological basis of both the causes and treatments of neurological disorders; to investigate how shifting societal viewpoints impact the diagnosis, treatment, and representation of neurological diseases and disorders. Content: Learn about the function and dysfunction of the nervous system. A variety of neurological diseases and disorders (such as epilepsy, autism spectrum disorder, Alzheimer’s disease, and others) will be discussed, including the underlying mechanisms of the dysfunction, the overall impact to individuals with these disorders, and the current treatment options available. We will also discuss the societal impact of these disorders and the depiction of neurological conditions in popular culture. Taught: Annually
BIOL 1510 or PSY 1330, grade C- or higher Credits: 4
NEUR 3300Neurobiology (with Lab)4
Crosslisted: Also listed as BIOL 3300 Goals: To comprehend and appropriately use the language and terms of neurobiology; to describe the function of the nervous system at the molecular, cellular, and systems levels; to interpret and discuss experimental findings in neuroscience. Content: An analysis of the biology of neurons and the nervous system. Topics include the molecular basis of electrical excitability in neurons, synaptic transmission and plasticity, motor control, mechanisms of sensation, and construction of neural circuits. Taught: Annually
Goals: To introduce the molecular and cellular processes underlying the development of a functional nervous system. To develop critical evaluation skills through reading and discussing primary literature in the field of developmental neurobiology. To synthesize topics and approaches to develop an original research proposal. Content: Mechanisms driving the formation of nervous tissue and generation of diverse types of neurons; migration of cells within the nervous system; outgrowth and pathfinding of axons; synaptic formation and reorganization. Taught: Alternate years
BIOL 3050 or BIOL 3060 or BIOL 3100, grade of C- or higher Credits: 4
NEUR 5961Biology & Neuroscience Seminar I1
Goals: The seminar program aims at introducing students to cutting edge research in the fields of biology and neuroscience. Content: The seminar program includes presentations by outside speakers, Hamline faculty, and students. Taught: Each semester
BIOL 1510 and 1520, with grades of C- or higher Credits: 1
NEUR 5962Biology & Neuroscience Seminar II1
Goals: The seminar program aims at introducing students to cutting edge research in the fields of biology and neuroscience. Content: The seminar program includes presentations by outside speakers, Hamline faculty, and students. Taught: Each semester
Goals: The seminar program aims at introducing students to cutting edge research in the fields of biology and neuroscience. Content: The seminar program includes presentations by outside speakers, Hamline faculty, and students. Taught: Each semester
Goals: The seminar program aims at introducing students to cutting edge research in the fields of biology and neuroscience. Content: All Biology majors and Neuroscience majors must present the results of a research project as part of the degree requirements for the major. Seniors in their last semester of the Biology or Neuroscience major should register for this course and present a research seminar to the department. Taught: Each semester; to be taken in final semester, senior year
