HUMA211M - Liberal Arts: Community Scholarship Profession A popular criticism of academia is summed up in the term “Ivory Tower.” The image is one of distance and aloofness, and implies that a college education, particularly in the Liberal Arts, has little real-world application. Students will trace the through line across their interdisciplinary courses and connect concepts to the communities in which they will live, vote, and work. They will reflect upon coursework, applications of education, and investigation of career paths. Faculty will also mentor students through the process of setting future-oriented goals for continued personal and professional development. Prerequisites: Completion of ENGL110M or 110XM

BIOL120M - Human Anatomy and Physiology II This course is a continuation of Human Anatomy & Physiology I. The course includes current in-depth information of the structure and function of the endocrine, digestive, respiratory, blood, cardiovascular, lymphatic, immune, urinary, and reproductive systems. Laboratory work augments lecture topics and includes exercises in microscopy, the study of fresh and preserved specimens, models, and physiological measurements on the human body. Pre-requisite of C or better in BIOL 110M or permission of the instructor.

NURS211M - Nursing III: Elliot MAT/Peds The student continues to develop competence to provide and manage care for patients and their families across the life span in structured health care settings.

BIOL110M - Human Anatomy and Physiology I This is a comprehensive course in the anatomy and physiology of the human body. It presents current in-depth information in basic molecular and cell biology as well as human cells, tissues, and organ systems. This first of two courses includes molecular biology which covers DNA and RNA structure and the formation of proteins, as well as basic cellular respiration. It encompasses the integumentary, skeletal, muscular, nervous, and sensory systems. Laboratory work augments lecture topics and includes the study of fresh and preserved specimens, models, microscopy and human physiology. Prerequisites: Successful completion (grade C or better) of high school level Biology and Chemistry or permission of the instructor.

BIOL210M - General Microbiology This course introduces the principles of microbiology, focusing on the structure, function, classification, and genetics of microorganisms. Topics include microbial metabolism, growth, genetics, diversity, methods for microbial control, and interactions with hosts, including pathogenicity, epidemiology, and immune responses. Laboratory work focuses on aseptic techniques, microscopy, and identification using staining and biochemical tests.

SOCI110M - Introduction to Sociology This course is an introduction to fundamental theories and concepts of sociology. It examines various social institutions and probes multifaceted dimensions of social issues and events. It also explores collective behavior and social movements.
