Biology is part
of all of our lives: as humans and as citizens and voters.
Many of the issues we deal with each day, such as health,
genetic counseling, energy alternatives, and land use, deal
with biology. In this course you will learn basic principles
of biology and to objectively apply them to your decisions
on health and medicine, nutrition, and the environment. In
addition to learning how science is done, the lab requirement
is designed to help you learn to collect data and apply that
information to problem-solving.

Lab Schedule:
The BIOL 101 lab is auto-tutorial and is scheduled "By
Arrangement." A new lab experiment is assigned each week.
You can work in lab anytime during the lab's open hours and
take as much or as little time as you need to complete each
week's lab assignment. Each lab is designed to take approximately
2.5 hours. |
