BIO 3302: Microbiology Lecture
Course Description: The fundamentals of microbiology: Lectures are focused on the structure of prokaryotic and eukaryotic microorganisms, host-microbe interactions, immunity and human infectious diseases..
Course breakdown: The course is a 4-credit, 6 contact hr/week course where both lecture and lab count as 50% each toward a final combined grade. The lecture consists of 2 contact hr/weekly meeting for 15 weeks.
BIO 3302L: Microbiology Laboratory
Course Description: Laboratory sessions are focused on pure culture techniques, methods of staining and the microscopic, colonial, and biochemical identification of microorganisms.
Course breakdown: The course is a 4-credit, 6 contact hr/week course where both lecture and lab count as 50% each toward a final combined grade. Lab: 30 sessions of two 2-contact-hour sessions weekly (total 4 contact hours/weekly).
BIO 4910: Independent Research Study in Biomedical Informatics: Information Literacy
Course Description: Working with a mentor selected from the Biological Sciences Department, develop and complete a semester-long intensive research project that integrates aspects of information literacy, scientific communication and oral presentation. Activities include a guided independent reading of scientific literature and the development of a research proposal and plan of action that implements hypothesis testing to answer a question germane to the biological sciences, bioinformatics, or health informatics.
BIO 4920: Independent Research Study in Biomedical Informatics: Guided Research
Course Description: Working with a mentor selected from the Biological Sciences Department, conducting the research and experimentation proposed in BIO 4910. This course helps students apply the process of science towards answering a research question in the biological sciences, bioinformatics or health informatics. This course culminates in the examination of oral, written and visual representations of research.
