Welcome to Introduction to the Brain
(BISC 482).
The purpose of this 2-hour online course is to help students learn more about the
structure and function of the brain. This course is not intended to
substitute for an in-depth 3-hour course on all of the detailed functioning of the human
brain. Rather, the course is designed to provide an introductory overview of the
major structural features of the brain and the functions associated with these structural
features. The course is
directed towards undergraduate students in the School of Biological Sciences at Louisiana Tech University. The course may also be
of interest to students in other areas of study such as biomedical engineering, pharmacy,
sociology, and nursing. |

This
course is offered for 2-hours of credit, and will require an estimated 30 hours to
complete. There will be two multiple choice tests which must be taken on campus.
Special arrangements can be made to take the tests online for long-distance
students. Apart from the two tests, the course can be taken entirely online at the
student's own time and pace. All course material is included online, so no textbook
is required. |
