BIOL 312 - Physiology

Semester Offered: First Semester
Full Course
Credits: 4 credits
Attribute: 4NS, QFR, WADV

How we and other organisms function forms physiology’s central question, approached in class first by studying how cells communicate and translate messages into action. Focus then shifts to more complex queries (e.g., how does the body respond when in love or under stress), integrating cardiovascular, respiratory, renal, and sexual physiology. Goals include strengthening reasoning and habits of mind that underlie deep understanding and lifelong learning.
