理学学士
生物学
站在生物研究的前沿, 准备去看医生, dental or veterinary school – all with the biology program at Tiffin University.
Tiffin University’s biology program teaches students how to read and interpret scientific research as well as develop and carry out their own research. The program also provides students with the foundational coursework needed to pursue medical-related studies after graduation including pre-medicine, 兽医预科和牙科预科.
项目的亮点
TU’s biology curriculum prepares students for the future with courses that cover biological and biochemical foundations of living systems (anatomy and 生理学, 发育生物学, cellular and molecular biology); chemical and physical foundations of biological systems (organic and biochemistry); psychological, social and biological foundations of behavior (animal behavior, introduction to psychology) and critical analysis and reasoning skills. These classes not only prepare students for a career in biology, but also for graduate school entrance exams like the Medical College 博彩平台推荐 Test (MCAT), the 研究生 Record Examination (GRE) and the Dental Admission Test (DAT).
为现实世界做好准备
通过生物项目, students will learn skills in the formal practices of observation, experimentation and hypothesis testing necessary to function as a biologist in the workplace or as a candidate for an advanced degree. 他们将能够清晰地表达, 口头和书面, 生物学知识, 背景下的生物学方法和生物学问题. Students will develop an awareness of the impact that biology has had on society at large as well as the interactions of biology with other disciplines.
主动、体验式学习
生物学 students will have access to a range of experiential learning opportunities that greatly enhance their understanding of the subject. 学生将参与实验室实验, where students will conduct practical investigations to learn techniques such as DNA analysis, 微生物培养, 或解剖. These experiences not only reinforce classroom concepts but also foster critical thinking, 解决问题的能力, 熟练操作科学设备. Students will also have the opportunity to participate in field trips, 学生在哪里参观自然栖息地, 生态系统, or research centers to observe and study various organisms in their natural environments. This hands-on approach allows students to directly apply their theoretical knowledge, 培养实地工作技能, and gain a deeper appreciation for the complexity of ecological interactions. 最后, internships or research placements provide biology students with real-world exposure, allowing them to work alongside professionals at research institutions, 保护组织, 或者政府机构. Such opportunities enable students to contribute to ongoing projects, 进行独立研究, and gain invaluable insights into the practical applications of biology.

课程描述
BIO250 -生态和进化 – This course looks at the role of 进化 in shaping the organisms alive today. This course will look at how 进化 operates at the molecular, organismal, and ecological levels. It will also look at the ways the environment impacts the 进化ary trajectories of organisms. Evolutionary topics covered will include genetic and phenotypic variation, 自然选择, 系统发生学, 群体遗传学, 物种形成, 和大进化. Ecological topics of climate, species interactions, and biodiversity will also be discussed.
BIO 325 -植物学-植物界概览. 植物形态学概论, 生理学, 遗传学,繁殖, 分类, 进化, 与生态. 结合讲座/实验室. (本课程有一个必要的实验部分).
生物325L -植物学实验室 – A general laboratory introduction into the plant kingdom. 这包括植物形态学, 生理学, 遗传学, 繁殖, 分类, 进化, 与生态. 结合讲座/实验室. (There is a corequisite lecture component to this course).
生物350 -动物行为 这门课是动物行为的比较研究, 并对其适应价值进行了分析, 生理机制, 发展, 和演化, 在他们的生态和社会背景下. During this course students will learn how to apply scientific reasoning to understand both the 进化 and mechanisms behind animal behavior with an emphasis on how 进化 joins numerous 领域内的子学科.

“There is always going to be a little doubt in any person’s mind when it comes to new things. But for me, I think proving people, who said I couldn’t do it, wrong is my biggest motivation. There’s really nothing that seems impossible to me anymore. The world is constantly changing and I feel like 我是 much more capable of adapting to those changes now compared to when I was walking on to TU’s campus for the first time.”
