3 courses with the subject BIOC, 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.
BIOC 1790Special Topics in Biochemistry
1-6 Variable Credits This course is designed to present additional or unique material and learning experiences within a specified discipline. The course will be based on student need, flexibility, and may be designed to meet various transfer and pre-major course requirements. Please see a current Course Schedule for complete course details.
This course includes structure and function of proteins, carbohydrates, nucleic acids, and lipids. Action and regulation of major metabolic pathways. Synthesis and degradation of biomolecules. Enzyme energetics, kinetics, and chemical basis for transmission of genetic information will also be discussed. Lab work will utilize applied biochemical techniques to reinforce topics covered in the lecture. This includes protein and lipid assays, examinations of metabolism, and analysis of sugars. Lab work will be designed to give the student experience using modern biochemical techniques and equipment. Responsible record keeping and conduct will also be emphasized. 4C/3/1/0
CHEM 2720 and BIOL 1740 with a grade of “C” or better or instructor permission Minnesota Transfer Curriculum (MnTC) Goal Area(s): Goal 3
BIOC 2790Biochemistry Internship/Research Project
1-4 Variable Credits This course provides students with an opportunity to design and carry out a research project under the supervision of a faculty advisor utilizing biochemistry in a lab setting. The research project will be prepared using literature review, problem identification, procedural documentation, data collection, data analysis, findings, conclusions, and recommendations for future research. The course will also provide an opportunity for field study in an approved internship setting. Evaluation will be carried out by faculty teams and experts in the field.
