22 courses with the subject MICR, 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.
This course serves as an introduction to bacterial pathogenesis and disease using taxonomy and categorical approaches. Material presented in the course includes maintenance, transmission, molecular mechanisms of virulence factors, pathogen-host interactions, disease process, and treatment and prevention of disease of pathogenic bacteria and fungus. Max Credit: 3
Designed primarily for nursing and pre-pharmacy majors, introduces students to microbiology, including the diversity of prokaryotic and eukaryotic microbes, their structural and physiological properties, and their applied medical significance; also covers the basic principles of the immune system and emphasizes the communicable diseases of man caused by microbial pathogens. Max Credit: 4
FDSC 4090 or FDSC 5090 , taken concurrently. Cross Listed: FDSC 4100 .
MICR 4130Mammalian Pathobiology3
Anatomical basis of disease in mammals. Emphasis on concepts of pathogenesis of disease, and the gross, microscopic and clinicopathological changes associated with lesions: cell injury and death; cellular degeneration; disturbances of growth and circulation; neoplasia; inflammation; and recognition of gross and microscopic tissue changes. Background in immunology will be beneficial. Max Credit: 3
C or better in LIFE 2022 . Cross Listed: PATB 4130 . Dual Listed: MICR 5130 .
MICR 4140Soil Microbiology4
Fundamental principles of soil microbiology and how they relate to microbial ecology, environmental contamination, agriculture and forestry. Max Credit: 4
Practical training with emphasis on diagnostic procedures used in a clinical microbiology laboratory. Students identify bacterial pathogens of animals and humans. Taught in a clinical setting utilizing selected clinical material. Techniques employed in the processing and identification of clinically significant bacteria are used and discussed. Safe laboratory practices for working with biohazards are presented. Max Credit: 3
Using a problem-based student learning model, students conceptualize, propose, perform and present a microbiology research study to address a real community problem. Students maintain a lab notebook, write an NSF-style research proposal, formulate hypotheses, engage in hands-on laboratory hypothesis testing and design and present a scientific poster. Max Credit: 4
Discusses microbial genetic approaches to study cell function and provides a molecular foundation for understanding how genes work to elicit phenotypes. Max Credit: 3
Introduces the diversity and ecology of soil microbes through an integrated lecture and laboratory course. Emphasis on molecular approaches to analyzing microbial diversity and evolution, and student-directed experimental design. Provides a continuum of realistic research experiences in molecular microbial ecology, from field work to evolutionary analysis of DNA sequence data. Max Credit: 4
