12 courses with the subject BIO, 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.
3 class hours, 2 laboratory hours, 4 credits. Cell types and structure. Hierarchical organizations of organisms. Systematics. Cell division. Genetics. Survey of animal and plant kingdoms. SUNY-GER: Natural Sciences. [Fall]
3 class hours, 2 laboratory hours, 4 credits. Morphology and physiology of viruses, bacteria, fungi, ferns, flowering plants and animals. Ecology. Animal behavior. Evolution. [Spring]
3 class hours, 3 credits. Population and community structure. Intra- and inter-specific competition. Predator-prey. Biodiversity. Mimicry. Co-evolution. Exotic species, Habitats. [Spring]
3 class hours, 3 credits. The marine environment. Classification of marine animals and plants. Challenges of life in the sea. Migration, reproduction & behavior of marine life. Marine ecosystems. [Fall – Even years]
3 class hours, 2 laboratory hours, 4 credits. The invertebrate fauna will be explored in terms of their morphology, physiology, and ecology. The evolutionary relationships among these groups will be investigated. Laboratory exercises will provide for the examination of preserved and/or live specimens of representative members of various phyla. [Fall - Odd years]
3 class hours, 3 credits. The study of the taxonomy, evolution, physiology, distribution, ecology, and economic importance of marine vegetation including coastal salt marshes and mangals. 2024-25 Undergraduate Course 3
3 class hours, 3 credits. An extensive study of fishes. Emphasis will be placed on their morphological and physiological characteristics and how adaptations of these help fish meet the challenges presented to them by the aquatic environment. [Spring-Odd Years]
3 class hours, 3 credits. A study of the models used for the evaluation of data relevant to the assessment and management of fish stocks. Concepts of population size, growth and mortality will be explored along with the fisheries management concepts of maximum sustainable yield, catch per unit of effort, and conservation measures and policies. [Spring - Even years]
3 class hours, 3 credits. This course covers techniques of inferential statistics and its practice using a statistical software. Topics include review of basic statistics, statistical software, t-test, linear regression, chi-square test, analysis of variance and nonparametric methods such as Mann-Whitney U test and Wilcoxon rank- sum. The analytic methods and applications will be linked to topics in biology or environmental science. [Fall]
2 class hours, 4 laboratory hours, 4 credits. An experimental approach to ecotoxicology. Techniques to be learned include: heavy metal determination by atomic absorption spectrophotometry, tissue and cell culturing, various field- sampling techniques. Students will design and carry to completion independent research projects and will present their results orally and in the form of a scientific paper.
3 class hours, 3 credits. Students will study the development of evolutionary theory from antiquity to today. Multiple hypotheses for how life changes over time will be evaluated through analyses of multidisciplinary data including: natural history, experiment evolution, genomics, paleontology, anthropology, and comparative biology drawn from published sources. Students will study evolutionary theory from the Great Chain of Being, to Darwinian natural selection, the Modem Synthesis, ending with contemporary attempts of evolutionary synthesis. Topics covered will include: origin of life, teleology, natural selection, sexual selection, evolutionary constraints, sociobiology, macroevolution, population genetics, and evolution of humans.
3 class hours, 3 credits. Theoretical and/or experimental investigation of contemporary topics or problems in biology. 2024-25 Undergraduate Course 4
