BL202 is the third course in the introductory sequence for biology majors. It is a 2-credit lab course that is taken concurrently with a 3-credit lecture course.
Course description: An examination of the processes which produce the diversity of organisms on our planet. Topics include the biotic and abiotic factors which determine the distribution and abundance of species and evolutionary processes which lead to adaptation, speciation, and extinction. Also examines conservation of the diversity of life by studying the interaction between humans and other organisms. Addresses quantitative aspects of biology, modeling, and graphical representations of empirical and theoretical concepts. In the laboratory, students explore the biodiversity of life on earth through field trips, lab experiences, and computer simulations. Basic biostatistics is introduced and used throughout this course. Student-designed investigative projects allow students working in small groups to practice skills in experimental design, data collection, computer-aided analyses, and communication skills.
Degree Requirements
PhD or equivalent degree required.
Preferred Skills and Experience
Scientific expertise in molecular biology or microbiology, expertise in synthetic biology not needed; strong interest in teaching undergraduates; willingness to respond to feedback and work collaboratively with multiple instructors.
