Biology (SBI100) is a 3-credit, 14 week introductory course that will provide students with a solid core foundation in basic and applied human biology. Through on-line self-study modules, tutorials, quizzes, exercises, and assignments, students will learn to use relevant terminology and concepts in a biological context. The course will emphasize the molecular and cellular basis of life, biochemical processes, cellular structure and function.
Students will have complete weekly on-line self-study modules and will interact online with the course instructor one evening a week in an on-line tutorial session. Students are expected to be prepared for these tutorial sessions (i.e. have completed the on-line modules).
The application of biology fundamentals to naturopathic medicine is integrated throughout the course, providing students with a unique opportunity to learn biology within the context of naturopathic medicine.
Each course is 14-weeks in duration (3-credits) and is delivered in a blended learning style, which includes online self-study modules with weekly live interactive online tutorial sessions one evening per week with the course instructor.
