BIO 480 3K - Biology Seminar

Minimum Credit(s) Awarded: 2
Maximum Credit(s) Awarded: 2

Edgewood’s Biology major emphasizes the contributions of broadly-educated biologists to a just and compassionate world. As such, the scientific community engages a variety of different people in a collaborative effort to advance discovery and its ethical application. Biology Seminar is a forum in which our advanced students use a scientific talk on undergraduate research to display their expertise in biology, demonstrate their understanding of the scientific process and its application, and articulate a personal philosophy regarding their role in the scientific community. The course models the value of scientific communication. All members of the course also take an active role in the discourse that is a critical part of the scientific community through evaluation and discussion of the work of peers.
