10 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 132Introduction to Molecules, Genes, and Cells, and the courses may be taken in
either order. Attributes: ENST Foundations (ESFN), Lab Sciences 132 Introduction to Molecules, Genes, and Cells Topics This introductory course approaches core biological themes from the molecular and cellular level, and is complementary to BIOL 131, Introduction to Organisms, Populations, and Ecosystems. Course content will be focused around a specific theme determined by the instructor, and will include biomolecule and cell structure and function; cell signaling and communication; chromosome and gene structure; DNA replication; transcription; and translation. The course will involve lecture, discussion, and readings from scientific literature. Laboratory exercises include both classic and modern approaches to cellular and molecular biology utilizing prokaryotic and/or eukaryotic organisms. The laboratory will stress the discovery approach in applying current techniques to biological experiments. Three hours classroom and three hours laboratory a week. This is one of two courses required of all Biology majors before completing upper level coursework. It is complementary to BIOL 131 – Introduction to Organisms, Populations, and Ecosystems, and the courses may be taken in either order. Attributes: Lab Sciences 201 Foundational Topics in Biology w/lab This foundational course provides students an opportunity to explore a discipline in biology in depth. Subject areas will vary and will be based upon instructor’s interests and expertise. Topic, course structure, credit and instructor will be announced by preregistration. Six hours classroom a week. Prerequisite: 131 and 132.
One elective may be chosen from courses listed above that the student has not already taken or another upper-level science course related to neuroscience (200-level or above): BIOL 216, 314, 318, 326, 327, 334, 335, or 417; CHEM 342 or 490; PSYC 355, 380 or 455. The other elective must be outside of DIV III (200-level or above), and must be a course that examines science in a philosophical, environmental, or socio-cultural context. The following are current courses which will satisfy this second elective:
