Credit Hours: 3
Restrictions:
May not be enrolled in one of the following Level(s):
Graduate
Prerequisite(s): MATH 101 AND MATH 102 AND MATH 211 AND CHEM 122 AND CAAM 210 AND (PHYS 101 OR PHYS 125 OR PHYS 111) AND (PHYS 102 OR PHYS 126 OR PHYS 112)
Description: Introduction to material, energy, charge, and momentum balances in biological systems. Steady state and transient conservation equations for mass, energy, charge and momentum will be derived and applied using basic mathematical principles, physical laws, stoichiometry, and thermodynamic properties. Problem based learning groups will solve open-ended problems. Required for students intending to major in bioengineering. MATH 211 is a concurrent prerequisite and may be taken the same semester.
