Course Descriptions All Courses 
BIOL 1308 Biology Concepts for Health Pre-Professionals
Fundamental principles of living organisms including physical and chemical properties of life, organization, function evolutionary adaptation, and classification. Concepts of reproduction, genetics, ecology, and the scientific method are included. This course is designed to prepare students to take BIOL 2304 or BIOL 2404.

 BIOL 1309 Life on Earth
A survey of the living organisms on our planet for the non-science major. Emphasis on evolutionary and natural history, structural and behavioral adaptations, biological diversity and co-evolution.

 BIOL 1323 Human Nutrition
This course explores the various nutrients, their sources, digestion, absorption, metabolism, interaction, storage, and excretion. Current research is presented against a background of basic nutritional concepts. Special emphasis is given to the role nutrition plays in the current health care delivery system and how nutrition can be emphasized to promote health maintenance. This course is required for most BSN students and fulfills the requirements for a science elective in the College of Natural Sciences at U.T. Prerequisite: High School Chemistry or CHEM 1411; BIOL 1406 or BIOL 1408 are recommended but not required.

BIOL 1406 Cellular and Molecular Biology
General Biology course designed for science majors and students with a strong science background who desire an in-depth approach to biological topics. An introduction to the physical and chemical organization of living organisms; cell structure, function, and metabolism; classical and molecular genetics; gene regulation; genetic engineering; molecular aspects of development; and reproduction. BIOL 1406 and 1408 may not both be counted towards graduation. Prerequisite: One year of high school chemistry or one semester of college chemistry; two years of high school algebra or MATD 0390.

BIOL 1407 Structure and Function of Organisms
General biology course designed for science majors and students with a strong science background who desire an in-depth approach to biological topics. An introduction to the diversity, anatomy, physiology, reproduction, development, behavior, and evolution of living organisms. Includes prokaryotes, protists, fungi, plants, and animals. BIOL 1407 and 1409 may not both be counted toward graduation. Prerequisite: BIOL 1406 with a minimum grade of C.

BIOL 1408 Introductory Biology -- Unity of Life
Introductory biology course designed for non-science majors who desire a conceptual approach to biological topics. An introduction to the nature of science, the characteristics of life, the molecular and cellular basis of life, genetics, reproduction, and development. An emphasis will be placed on how these topics are related to current issues such as genetic engineering, biotechnology, and problems facing modern society. BIOL 1406 and 1408 may not both be counted toward graduation. Unity of Life Honors -- For more information please contact the Honors Department at honors@austincc.edu.

 BIOL 1409 Introductory Biology -- Diversity of Life
Introductory biology course designed for non-science majors who desire a conceptual approach to biological topics. An introduction to the diversity of life: viruses, prokaryotes, protists, fungi, plants, and animals. Topics will include structures and functions, evolution, environmental and human interactions, and origin of life. BIOL 1407 and 1409 may not both be counted for graduation.
