    Bioinformatics is an interdisciplinary field that applies statistical and computational techniques to analyze large biological datasets. This course covers three core areas in bioinformatics: command-line computing, biological data management, and computer programming. Students will gain hands-on experience with high-level programming languages, including Bash, SQL, and Python, to parse, modify, and analyze data from DNA, RNA, and protein sequencing. Together, these skills provide a foundation for understanding how biological information is organized, processed, and interpreted within the biomedical sciences and the biotechnology workforce. (Fall) [Graded Letter) Three (3) hours of lecture per week. A minimum grade of "C" (2.0) or above must be earned in this course before it can be counted in a biological science major or minor or as a prerequisite for any other biology course. Prerequisite(s): BIOL 3060 and BIOL 3065 - Prerequisite Min. Grade: C

    This course provides an introduction to the fundamental principles and methods used in epidemiology. Students will learn to investigate disease patterns, explore determinants of health, and apply epidemiological tools to control public health problems. Key topics include the design and interpretation of epidemiological studies, measures of disease frequency and association, and the role of bias and confounding in research. Case studies of real-world outbreaks will illustrate the practical application of these methods, providing students with a hands-on understanding of outbreak investigation and public health interventions. Students are encouraged to complete MATH 1040 or MATH 1190 prior to taking this course.
