  • BIOL 3670: Sci Comm for Next G

    3.00 Credits
    University of Utah

    The ability to communicate effectively to peers, professionals and the public is critical to being successful in any scientific field. Science addresses questions that are integral to some of today's most pressing political and social issues including health care, environmental quality, technology and education. Therefore, scientists must be able to place their work in a context that is relevant and accessible to a broad audience. This course is designed to teach students how to communicate complex interdisciplinary scientific concepts through written and oral mediums and to prepare them to communicate successfully with peers, researchers, faculty, students, and future employers. The course consists of a 2-hour class session and a 3-hour weekly communication and teaching lab in a K-12 school.

  • BIOL 3715: Bio Data Anal. and Vis.

    3.00 Credits
    University of Utah

    This hands-on course will introduce students to the fundamental tools for the analysis and visualization of data from a range of biological sub-fields. Topics will include, but are not limited to, the management of data, exploration and description of data distributions, basic linear regression and hypothesis testing, and exposure to a range of data and visualization types. Example data sets will draw from ecology, genomics, physiology, and other sub-fields in biology to expose students to a wide range of visualization and analysis techniques. At the end of this course, students will know how to explore and analyze a new dataset to make defensible conclusions from data using modern open scripting tools, such as R or Python. No prior computer programming experience is required. Prerequisites: BIOL 1610 AND BIOL 1620 AND (MATH 1170 OR MATH 1210 OR MATH 1215 OR MATH 1250 OR MATH 1310 OR MATH 1311)
