BI101 General Biology - Emphasis on Ecology

Students learn and apply fundamental science processes, learn major concepts of contemporary biology and, work toward developing science literacy as an educated citizen. Students investigate changes that have occurred in a number of significant regional ecosystems over the past two hundred years, especially human induced changes, and forces driving further potential changes in these systems over the next half century. Students complete several investigations both in and out of lab and report on these investigations. Biology 101 involves four or five field trips. This is a survey course for non-major students seeking to fulfill a lab science general education requirement.
