專業(yè)概況
在這里學(xué)什么?
The curriculum in general biology provides students with exposure to a broad spectrum of biological sciences including genetics, cell biology, physiology, ecology, and organismal and evolutionary biology. Since basic principles of physical science are central to many biological concepts, coursework in physics and chemistry is included in the lower-division requirements. The B.A. program is suited for students preparing for professional schools, including teacher credentialing programs, or careers that require students to be versed in diverse areas of biology.
Students preparing to become teachers should note that additional science preparation beyond the major is required (geosciences breadth: meteorology, astronomy, geology, and oceanography). It is important to consult early and often with a credential advisor in the Biology department to plan the major and keep abreast of any state-mandated changes in requirements.
Program Learning Outcomes
Core Competencies
- Understanding the Process of Science: Students will demonstrate how a theory is supported or can be rejected based on data from experiments.
- Quantitative Reasoning: Students will be able to create graphs and perform simple statistical tests to determine whether or not differences between groups are significant.
- Relationship Between Science and Society: Students will be able to explain a biological process or phenomenon as it relates to a societal issue.
Core Concepts
- Evolution: Students will be able to understand the fundamental concepts of evolution, role of selective pressures, and how genes change.
- Relationship Between Structures and Function: Students will be able to describe how variation in the structure of an organ in a plant or animal contributes to variation in its function.
- Information Flow and Storage: Students will be able to explain the transmission of heritable traits.
