BSC 1005 - Survey of Biology

3 credits
Prerequisites: Demonstration of readiness for college-level computation and communication.
This is a biological science survey course that is intended to serve as a general biology course for students who do not necessarily wish to pursue a career in science. The course may be taken concurrently with the associated lab, but the lab component is not required. Topics include basic chemistry for biological sciences, biology of the cell, heredity, evolution, phylogenic classification, ecology, and sustainability. The course emphasizes major biological concepts as they apply to current world issues.
