Monday Shadow Visit Experience:
BIO.103 - Introduction to Molecular & Cell Biology: 12:00 pm–12:50 pm
Designed as a foundation for science-based disciplines, this course begins with a survey of basic chemistry as it applies to the structure and function of cells. An exploration of cellular physiology includes organelle function, metabolic processes and human organ systems highlighted as an example of the integrated workings of different cell types. The laboratory reinforces the concepts of the class and includes techniques in biological chemistry, microscope use and instrumental analysis.

BIO 312 - Conversation Biology: 1:00 pm–1:50 pm
This course provides an overview of contemporary conservation biology as an interdisciplinary field that investigates human-environment relationships as they relate to the preservation and restoration of biodiversity from local to global scales, inclusive of species, their populations’ gene pools, and ecosystems. Topics to be analyzed include: causes of biodiversity loss; ecosystem services; population ecology, genetics and management; design and management of conservation landscapes; restoration ecology; sociocultural aspects of conservation issues; and examples of conservation success.

Friday Shadow Visit Experience:
CHEM 201 - Environmental Chemistry I: 10:00 am–10:50 am
Examines the human impact of global environmental chemical products and processes. Uses system concepts to define the boundaries and essential inputs and outputs of each subsystem. Primary emphasis on the hydrosphere and the lithosphere, with major concentration on water pollution, solid waste management, hazardous wastes, and pesticides.
