Science

This course will enrich students' knowledge in design and applied engineering as they model, fabricate, test, discuss, and iterate upon mechanical 3D objects they design throughout the course. Each aspect of the course will allow students to design and fabricate 3D objects using computer-aided design (CAD) software and 3D printers. Students will experience the design process and become familiar with the advantages and limitations of each 3D printing technology in terms of precision, resolution, and material capabilities. Prerequisite: Sophomore standing.

Assist and mentor students in developing a resume, applications for summer internships or jobs, and an initial personal statement or biographical sketch. Work on additional soft-skills such as interviewing, leadership and community service. Prerequisites: BIO 151 or CHE 113 with a grade of "C" or better.

This course is designed as a review for the MCAT, OAT, or PCAT. Topics include General Chemistry, Organic Chemistry, Biochemistry, Molecular Biology, Anatomy, and Physiology. The application process for graduate or professional school will also be discussed. Pre-requisite:Junior standing, BIO 152 and CHE 314.

The course focuses on the study of representative works from a variety of disciplines with emphasis on the relationship between place (which will vary each time the course is offered) and scientific discovery. It includes an experiential learning trip for which a deposit is required at the time of registration. Prerequisites: Deposit and permission of instructor required at registration. The course may be repeated with a different topic and fulfills the Engaging Our World requirement in the General Education Curriculum.

This course provides a basic introduction to the main philosophical and historical questions concerning scientific knowledge and methodology. It surveys a variety of positions on standard philosophy of science topics, centered around the question, "What is science?", using biology as a context. In addition, the course emphasizes practice in leading discussion and presentation of oral and written reports. Prerequisites: ENG 112 or WRI 118 and either BIO 151/BIO 153 or CHE 113. Corequisite: REL 383. This course fulfills the Engaging Our World requirement in the General Education Curriculum.

Supervised field experience in an appropriate agency or organization. Prerequisites: Permission of Instructor, Division Chair, and Dean required. Repeat up to a total of 6 hours. Does not count toward a major or minor in biology or chemistry.
