Conservation Biology
Addresses the areas in conservation biology that affect the maintenance, loss, and restoration of biological diversity. The impacts of global warming, species invasions, and habitat destruction on biodiversity will be covered in this course. Special attention to current research, debate and controversy will be discussed within this rapidly emerging field of study. Students will be required to write a major review paper over a specific conservation topic, analyzing the current research conducted on their topic of choice.
Ornithology
Address the study of birds in topics related to anatomy, physiology, ecology, and evolutionary history of birds. Several class discussions on current research in the filed of ecology was conducted.
General Biology I and II
General Biology I will address the scientific study of life at the molecular and cellular levels including mechanisms of inheritance, development, and evolution.
General Biology II addresses the scientific study of life at the organismal, population, and community levels including form, function, reproduction, taxonomy, systematics, ecology and evolutionary history of biodiversity.
General Biology I and II lab Supervisor
Coordinate all GTA’s for the General Biology labs that are conducted throughout the semester where I also write and determine the material taught.
Introduction to Life Sciences I
Life Sciences is a non-major course that I created at UT Tyler during the Fall 2014 semester. It focuses on learning important facts about the natural world and understanding the significance of these facts with in the context of major biological concepts.
Introduction to Life Sciences II
Life Science II is a non-major course I created at UT Tyler during the Spring 20215 semester. It focuses on scientific study of life at the organismal, population, and community levels including form, function, reproduction, taxonomy, systematics, ecology and evolutionary history of biological diversity.
