Fall, Spring
The course is designed to provide sophomore-level biology majors with a fundamental understanding of how biologists develop research questions, design experiments, analyze data, and report their findings to the scientific community. This course explores form and function using prokaryotic or eukaryotic organismal models. Students will develop skills in the scientific process, including data collection, literature searches, data mining, hypothesis development, experimental design, data analysis and interpretation, and written or oral communication of research results. Recitations will more fully develop topics explored in the lab. (3-hour laboratory, 1-hour recitation).
