This course introduces the nature of scientific inquiry and applies fundamental concepts of cellular and molecular biology to scenarios and situations to engage the student in critical thinking about how biological principles can be applied to everyday life situations. This course is designed for students who are majoring in the sciences typically for degrees in Biological Science or degrees related to the pre-professional programs such as pharmacology, medicine, forestry & wildlife. This course does not need to be taken in sequence.

NOTE: BI211 is most appropriate for AS and AAOT Science Majors due to the depth and rigor associated with the content. BI101 and BI112 become electives if BI211 is taken.
