19 courses with the subject BIOL, 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.
BIOL 111Basic Biology for Life. (CIP: 26.0101)
Class Hours: 3 Lab Hours: 0 Total Credit Hours: 3 This course is a survey of the basic principles and concepts used by biologists to explain how organisms live and survive. Topics will be focused on plants, animals, and humans, and will include cell structure and function, genetics, evolution and diversity of organisms (both creation and evolutionary theory), and ecology. Through this course, students will learn to appreciate creation as the revelation of God in nature. This course is intended for non-majors, and will not count toward the requirements of the Biology or Biopsychology majors.
Class Hours: 3 Lab Hours: 3 Total Credit Hours: 4 An introductory study of biological science. This course includes an investigation of the basic principles of the study of life including: molecular biology, cell structure and function, genetics, and ecology.
BIOL 143Biology I. (CIP: 26.0101) Class Hours: 3 Lab Hours: 3 Total Credit Hours4
This freshmen level biology course introduces the principles and concepts of general biology. The emphasis is placed on the following topics: basic biochemistry, molecular and cellular biology, metabolism, energy transformation, plus related laboratory work. Upon completion, the student should be able demonstrate a clear understanding of life on the molecular and cellular levels.
BIOL 144Biology II. (CIP: 26.0101) Class Hours: 3 Lab Hours: 3 Total Credit Hours4
This freshmen level biology course introduces the principles and concepts of general biology and is a continuation of Biology I. The emphasis in this class is placed on the following topics: genetics, the theory of evolution, biodiversity, ecology, plant and animal systems, plus related laboratory work. Upon completion, the student should be able demonstrate a clear understanding of life on the molecular, organismal, ecological levels.
BIOL 371Genetics. (CIP: 26.0801) Class Hours: 3 Lab Hours: 2 Total Credit Hours4
A basic knowledge of Mendelian genetics and inheritance will be presented with such topics as meiosis, cytogenetics and population genetics. Emphasis is placed on DNA organization, protein synthesis, gene control and recombinant DNA technology and human genetic disorders.
BIOL 141 and CHEM 152 with a grade of C or higher.
BIOL 481Intro to Biological Research. (CIP: 26.0101)
Class Hours: 1 Lab hours: 6 Total Credit Hours: 3 This course will provide the student with beginning experience to the methodology of biological research, experimental design and scientific writing. Topics range from ecology and the environment to genetics, evolution and ethics in biological issues. Students will work in a one-on-one arrangement with an assigned science professor.
An individualized course that enables a student to study material not in the curriculum or to facilitate an in- depth academic exploration of a particular area of interest.
