| Biology | 1.0 Credit |
| This
course is designed for sophomore level students and carries laboratory
credit. Topics include genetics, ecology, evolution, human biology,
plant and animal kingdoms, and microbiology or physics. |
|
| Earth Science | 1.0 Credit |
| Earth
Science is designed for those students who have taken Chem-Physics and
Biology and wish to further their study of the physical sciences. Earth
Science meets the laboratory science requirement for graduation and
college entrance. The student will study astronomy, geology, meteorology
and oceanography. |
|
| Chemistry | 1.0 Credit |
|
Chemistry is the study of
the structure and composition of matter that make up living things and
their environment. Chemistry also deals with the study of the changes of
matter and the mechanisms by which changes occur. This course is
recommended for college-bound students. |
|
| Anatomy and Physiology | 1.0 Credit |
|
This course is designed
for those students who have taken biology and who wish to further their
study of biology. The student will study the structure and function of
the various cells, tissues, and integrated systems of the body. The
course is designed to lay the groundwork then move into various human
systems. |
|
| Physics | 1.0 Credit |
|
Applied Physics/Technology
is a high school course in applied science for vocational-technical and
college-bound students. The material studied shows how technical
concepts can be analyzed and applied to equipment and devices in
mechanical, fluid, electrical, and thermal energy systems. The course is
designed for students to explore and apply the principles of technology
in a classroom setting with hands-on laboratory activities. |
|
| Environmental Science | 1.0 Credit |
|
This is an introductory
course for students who wish to study topics relating to the
environment, its resources, quality and ethical issues. Environmental
science is the study of the natural sciences in an interdisciplinary
context that always includes consideration of people and how they have
influenced various systems around us. It includes many aspects of
biology, earth and atmospheric sciences, fundamental principles of
chemistry and physics, human population dynamics, and an appreciation
for the Earth and its natural resources. |
|
| Botany | 1.0 Credit |
|
Presents basic concepts of
plant biology for the non-major, focusing on the plant characteristics,
unity and diversity, growth, and reproduction. Students discuss current
ideas in agriculture, horticulture, medicine, biotechnology, ecology,
conservation, and environmental issues. Laboratory work includes
greenhouse and field studies. |
|
| Zoology | 1.0 Credit |
| The course gives an introduction to zoology, with particular emphasis on the morphology and systematics of both vertebrates and invertebrates. In addition, the students should acquire basic knowledge in human ecology (including an introduction to the biosphere and bio-diversity). | |
