| BI101-102 General Biology |
This sequence of science electives satisfies the science requirements of non-science majors. The first semester of BI101 provides students with a foundation in biochemistry, cell biology, genetics, form and function of the major systems of plants and animals. The second semester of BI102 covers topics in behavior, evolution, ecology and comparative survey of the major groups of organisms. Topics and concepts are presented in the context of current events and the development of scientific literacy. This course also includes guest lectures from the Humanities and the Sciences that make connections with biology and support the liberal arts mission of the college. Note: this course is not designed for students interested in graduate programs in the health care field or majors administered by the Biology Department. Those students must enroll in General Biology for science majors (see BI103 and BI104).
Three hours of lecture and two hours of laboratory each week for two semesters. Four credits, each semester. |
