BIO 211. Human Anatomy & Physiology (4 Credits)

A study of the structure and function of the human body. Special emphasis is placed upon correlating structure with function in an examination of the human body from the cell and cellular metabolism level to the complex systems level. The laboratory is correlated with lectures and includes exercises of cell and tissue structure and function and exercises covering and integrating the microscopic and gross anatomy of the integument, body membranes, skeleton, articulations, and muscles with their corresponding body functions.

Prerequisite(s): Take BIO-101 or BIO-105
Corequisite(s): Take BIOL-211

BIO 212. Human Anatomy & Physiology (4 Credits)

A continuation of BIO-211 in which attention is given to the structure and function of biological integrating and control mechanisms and mechanisms for processing, transporting, secreting, and eliminating. Emphasis is given to body maintenance response to external and internal stress. Laboratory exercises cover nervous, endocrine, digestive, circulatory, respiratory and urinary structures and processes in maintaining homeostasis.

Prerequisite(s): Take BIO-211
Corequisite(s): TAKE BIOL-212
Restrictions: RGM.113

BIO 321. General Microbiology (3-4 Credits)

This course focuses on bacterial diversity, structure, metabolism, growth and growth control, development of resistance, biofilms, genetics, genomic evolution, and population heterogeneity. Viral diversity, growth, and modes of replication are also investigated. Microbial interactions (microbiomes and host-pathogen interactions) are explored. The lab component reinforces lecture topics and employs both biochemical and genetic organism identification.

Prerequisite(s): Take BIO-291 or BIO-105/BIO-106 with instructor permission only
Corequisite(s): Take BIOL-321

HS 210. Pathophysiology (3 Credits)

This online course will guide students through body systems to gain an understanding of basic pathophysiology. Students will review concepts of basic body function and how each system adapts to stress. To complete lessons, students must have their own device capable of running downloaded applications.

HS 211. Pharmacology (3 Credits)

This online course will guide students through basic knowledge of pharmacology. Drug categories will be reviewed by body system as well as applied to various illnesses across the lifespan. to complete lessons, students must have their own device capable of running downloaded applications.

PSYC 210. Life Span Development

This course will discuss the basics and principles of the study of human growth and development across the lifespan. A topical approach will be applied or study the physical, cognitive, social, and emotional systems as they are embedded in historical and cultural contexts, and their specifics in particular stages in life. Students will develop an understanding of the methodological and epistemological basis, of historical and recent theoretical framework and applied aspects that are central to the study of developmental psychology.

 

MATH 107. Introduction to Statistics (3 Credits)

This course is a non-calculus-based study of statistics, including descriptive methods, basic probability theory, some design and data-collection issues, and procedures for statistical inference. Topics on statistical inference include confidence intervals and hypothesis testing for means and proportions along with chi-squared tests. Emphasis is on set-up and interpretation rather than on computation, with a significant reliance on computer software and/or statistical calculators for the "number crunching" portion of the analysis. Students may not receive credit for both MATH 107 and MATH 117. MATH 107 includes all content in MATH 117 except ANOVA, and consequently moves at a slower pace than MATH 117.

SOC 101. Introduction to Sociology (3 Credits)

A comparative and historical analysis of human societies.
