BIOL 102 - Introduction to Biology II

Type of Course: Lecture, Laboratory
This two-semester course is designed with three goals in mind: (1) to provide students with an understanding of the unifying themes in modern biology, (2) to introduce students to the diversity of life forms at all levels of organization, and (3) to illustrate the methods and modes of scientific inquiry in the biological sciences. The emphasis is on cellular and molecular biology during one semester and organismic and evolutionary biology during the other semester. Both semesters must be completed before a student can enroll in advanced courses offered to satisfy the requirements of the biology major. Qualified students must obtain approval from the chair of the department to have this requirement waived.
