BIOL 7200:Integrative Biology

3 Class Hours 0 Laboratory Hours 3 Credit Hours
Prerequisite: Admission and enrollment in the Master of Science in Integrative Biology program.
This course explores how modern biologists use knowledge from other disciplines to answer novel questions. Explicit applications of physics, chemistry, and math in biological problem solving will give the students a solid foundation for exploring the living world. That foundation will then expand as the students learn to integrate across scales within biology. From biological molecules through organismal biology and up to ecosystem interactions, students will learn how to formulate and explore the complex scientific questions that dominate modern biology. Finally, these integrative techniques will be used to explore scientific applications with outside fields (e.g. economics and policy making).
