BIOL 4853 EVOLUTION An overview of evolution including historical development, underpinning evidence, and current science and applications. Prerequisites: BIOL 1054 and BIOL 1254. BIOL 3253 recommended. S BIOL 4864 HUMAN GENETICS A study of human genetics that focuses on human molecular genetics including genetic factors causing diseases; changes in gene expression during development, differentiation, and pathogenesis; recombinant DNA; gene therapy; clinical genetics; genetic epidemiology; immunogenetics; cytogenetics; and genetics of specific disorders and diseases. Enrollment is by signature only. Corequisite: BIOL 4864L. Prerequisites: BIOL 3152 and BIOL 3253 and junior or senior standing. D BIOL 4901 BIOLOGICAL SCIENCES CAPSTONE Students will demonstrate their knowledge and skills in biological sciences by completing and presenting guided original research or by searching the biological literature and presenting a review paper on a topic chosen from a designated course completed the previous semester. Students must submit a plan for completion when enrolling in the course. Enrollment requires permission of the instructor. Prerequisites: Biological sciences major and senior standing. F, S BIOL 4914 GENERAL AND COMPARATIVE PHYSIOLOGY A study of the principles of comparative animal physiology with emphases on morphological, physiological, and behavioral adaptations. Examples taken from humans, familiar animals, and uncommon animals that represent elegant solutions to survival problems and illustrate physiological concepts. The course covers the major organ systems of the body and their interactions with each other and the environment presented in an evolutionary and ecological context. Enrollment by permission of the instructor. Corequisite: BIOL 4914L. Prerequisites: BIOL 1054 and BIOL 1254 and CHEM 1303 and CHEM 1352 and junior or senior standing. F BIOL 4915 GENERAL AND COMPARATIVE ANATOMY AND PHYSIOLOGY A study of the principles of comparative anatomy and physiology with emphases on morphological, physiological, and behavioral adaptations. Major groups of vertebrates will be dissected to explore their structure and function. Physiological experimentation of animals will show the interaction of the body systems with the environment and the relationship between anatomy, physiology, ecology, and evolution. Corequisite: BIOL 4915L. Prerequisites: BIOL 1054, BIOL 1254, CHEM 1303 and CHEM 1352. D BIOL 4935 CELL AND MOLECULAR BIOLOGY A study of the cellular and molecular basis for the structure and organization of the cell with emphases on control of the cell cycle, transport of information and materials, and signaling. The laboratory emphasizes cellular and molecular tools and techniques and includes research and presentation of a cell/molecular biology question. Permission of the instructor is required. Corequisite: BIOL 4935L. Prerequisites: BIOL 1054 and BIOL 1254 and junior or senior standing. D BIOL 4944 NEUROSCIENCE A study of the molecular, structural, physiologic, cognitive, and behavioral aspects of the brain and nervous system. Includes molecular and cellular neuroscience, brain science, anatomy and physiology of the central nervous system, molecular and biochemical basis for information processing, and applications to clinical sciences and biomedical engineering. Corequisite: BIOL 4944L. Prerequisite: Junior or senior standing. D
BIOL 4974 HISTOLOGY A study of the microanatomy and functional aspects of normal animal tissues. Corequisite: BIOL 4974L . Prerequisites: BIOL 1054 and 1254. Recommended: BIOL 3053 and/or 3704. D Biology Credit for Summer Activities Students who attend summer courses at the Gulf Coast Marine Research Laboratory (with which SWOSU is affiliated), the University of Oklahoma Biological Station, or other institutions of higher education, may be able to use those courses toward their biology degree. Likewise, students may earn college credit for some summer research positions and internships. Students who are considering such courses should meet with the Department Chair, prior to enrolling, to determine if these courses may be used toward their degree.
