Course Overview

Biology 102 is an introduction to cell biology, DNA, synthesis of biological molecules, genetics, genetic technologies, adaptation and evolution.

This course is intended for NON-Science majors. If you plan on majoring in a field of science this is probably not the class for you. Check with your intended transfer school and program for their specific degree requirements. Biology 102 is the second course in a three term sequence of general biology (101, 102, and 103). 100 level general biology courses are structured to be taken in any order. There are no prerequisites for this class.
