DIRS 9170 is a six-week introduction to biology designed to give students a background for success in SCIT 1407, BIOL 1406 OR BIOL 1408. This course meets 12 times. Non-Majors BiologyNOTE: Biology 1408 and 1409 are courses for non-majors. Non-science majors and returning students with limited biology background may take either course in preparation for their first biology course for majors. There are no prerequisites.

Majors BiologyNOTE: Biology 1406 and 1407 are courses for students majoring and/or minoring in biology or related disciplines. It is recommended that students have recently had either high school biology or Biology 1408 or 1409. It is also recommended that students have recently had high school chemistry or Chemistry 1405 before taking this course. Students in BIOL 1407, 2401, 2402 AND SCIT 1407 and 1408 will be required to purchase their own dissection kit from the campus bookstore or some other source.

Anatomy & Physiology for Nursing MajorsNOTE: Enrollment into SCIT 1407 will require an appropriate reading and writing score on one of the assessment instruments (THEA/TASP, etc.) taken within the last two years. If your reading or writing score is below the minimum cutoff, you will be advised to enroll into an alternative biology course, such as BIOL 1408 or DIRS 9170. SCIT 1407 is a prerequisite for the Nursing Program. Students in BIOL 1407, 2401, 2402 AND SCIT 1407 and 1408 will be required to purchase their own dissection kit from the campus bookstore or some other source. Day CoursesApplied Human Anatomy/Phys I
