Course Listings (A-D)

COURSE LISTINGS AND DEPARTMENTS OF INSTRUCTION

The Departments of Instruction, which are arranged in alphabetical order, state requirements for a major in that department and list other departments from which courses may be selected to complete the major. Courses outside the department which may be accepted toward a major are listed at the end of the regular courses of the department.

The hours for classes and the rooms in which they will be held are found in the Schedule of Classes, which is issued by the Office of the Registrar.

A comma between course numbers (e.g. 101, 102) indicates a two-semester sequence in which the first semester is not a prerequisite to the second semester. A dash between course numbers (e.g. 101-102) indicates a two-semester sequence in which the first semester is a prerequisite to the second semester, but may be taken for credit without the second.

The level of a course is indicated by its number. Courses in the 100's are intended for first-year students; those in the 200's are open to sophomores; those in the 300's, to juniors and seniors and those in the 400's, to seniors only. A student may take courses at his or her level or lower, but never above his or her level except under special circumstances with the approval of the Department Chair.

Ordinarily, odd-numbered courses are offered during the first semester and even-numbered courses during the second. Some courses, however, are offered both semesters without a change in number. Demand for certain courses or staff conditions may also necessitate a change in the usual sequence. Some courses are offered in alternate years only. An effort has been made to indicate, for your planning, when courses are offered. For uniformity, the notations are based upon the academic year dates. For example, "Fall of even-odd years" means "Fall of 2006-2007," "Fall of 2008-2009," etc.; "Spring of odd-even years" means "Spring of 2007-2008," "Spring of 2009-2010," etc.

If fewer than five students elect a course, or if unforeseen difficulties arise, the College reserves the right to withdraw it from the schedule without further notice.

BIOLOGY

Professors Baker, Carty, Faber and R. Murray

The Department of Biology's programs are designed to provide a background in the life sciences within the context of a liberal arts education and to prepare majors for occupational goals and advanced training. Courses serve students in the basic liberal arts program, those who plan to teach in elementary or secondary schools, students who are interested in basic biological research and those who plan to work in the applied fields of allied health, podiatry, dentistry, medicine, veterinary medicine, medical technology, nursing, pharmacology, physical therapy, public health, agriculture, horticulture, agronomy, forestry, fish and wildlife management, park management, plant pathology, entomology and environmental management with special emphasis on water resources studies.

A. The Department of Biology offers two fields of concentration:

1. Biology Major: 39 semester hours of which 30 must include Biology 021, 022, 031, 032, 041, 042, 111, 112, 114, 213, 222, 223, 311, 312, 363 and a capstone course as described below.

Allied Courses: All biology majors must take 8 semester hours of Chemistry (101 and 102), 8 semester hours of Physics (101 and 102 or 111 and 112), and 6 semester hours of Mathematics.

Forensic Science Track: All of the above Biology Major and allied requirements, plus additional allied courses: ANT 205, 325, 425, and POL 151. One of the allied math requirements must be MTH 210. Students interested in DNA processing or a graduate program in Forensic Science are strongly encouraged to take the following courses: CHM 201, 404, and 408.

2. Environmental Biology Major: 33 semester hours including: Biology 021, 022, 031, 032, 041, 042, 109, 111, 112, 114, 213, 222, 223, 311, 312 and 334 (capstone).

Allied Courses: ECO 251 and 344; CHM 101 and 102; MTH 115 or 222; a statistics course; PHY 101 and 102 or 111 and 112; WTR 323.

Capstone Requirement: All Biology and Environmental Biology majors are required to complete a capstone experience designed to heighten their understanding of their chosen field. To this end, majors are asked to take one of the following courses, a principal component of which is a semester-long research project: BIO 303, 318, 325, 334, or 415.

Biology Colloquium Requirement: All Sophomore, Junior and Senior Biology and Environmental Biology majors are required to attend a minimum of four evening talks in our Biology Colloquium Series each semester. These programs cover a wide range of topics of general biological interest; the talks may be valuable in helping determine career goals and placement in graduate programs. Students entering the major with class standing of second semester sophomore or higher (e.g., transfer students and students changing majors) will enter the Biology Colloquium sequence at the 02 level (021 or 022) and continue to participate in the colloquium series until they graduate.

Students who do not wish to major in Biology or Environmental Biology but nonetheless have a strong interest in the biological sciences, have the option of pursuing a Minor in Biology. Students have substantial flexibility in fashioning their minor according to the areas of biology that hold the greatest interest for them.

Biology Minor: 20 semester hours in Biology to include BIO courses (111 and 112) or 110 with the laboratory, and to include 315 or 363. Students who have first taken BIO 110 may then apply 112 (but not 111) as credit towards the required 20 hours, but students who have taken the 111-112 sequence may not then apply 110 as credit toward the Minor. BIO 311 also may not be applied as credit towards the Biology Minor.

No grade of "D" shall be waived in 200, 300 or 400 level biology courses being applied toward either biology major or minor.

Natural Areas
Heidelberg administers four natural areas which total nearly 100 acres and are an average distance of 15 miles from campus. In addition, state-managed river and marsh preserves are within a half-hour's drive. Heidelberg's natural areas represent four different types of woodlands. Two of these parcels, undisturbed for more than a century, were given to the College by two alumni, Paul Bartholomew and Wayne Funk. Also readily available to students for field study are Rock Creek, which flows through the main part of campus.

Living but 30 yards from the Caribbean shore, this class (spring vacation in alternate years) spends several days snorkeling on the second longest barrier reef in the world. Overnight trips inland investigate the world's only jaguar reserve, several ancient Mayan ruins and life in the contemporary Creole, Carib and Mayan villages.

Internships
