BI407W Coordinating Seminar Writing Intensive
Prerequisites: BI 101, 201 and 231, each with grades of at least a "C".
Two writing intensive courses that review basic biological principles via required readings and quizzes on assigned chapters in a comprehensive biology text. Short papers on responsible conduct in research and inter-relationship of important concepts in biology will be required. Additionally, each semester students will write a term paper and give an oral presentation on topics chosen by the faculty centered around a particular theme in biology. The intent is to provide students with a seminar discussion forum in which to "pull together" information learned in a variety of courses in the biology major. Two hours; two semesters. Offered yearly.
