Biology Gateway Course
Currently Offered: General Biology I BIOL 1406.17E Fall 2022
Previously offered: General Biology II BIOL 1407 Spring 2022
Instructor: M. Torres-Avila
Under the NSF grant-funded project, trained faculty will offer students the opportunity to take core “gateway” courses in Mathematics and Biology in a Spanish and/or BILINGUAL instructional format to promote student exploration of fundamental concepts in math and sciences while recognizing the ability to learn in a bilingual modality.
This project will be in concurrence with the B3 Institute of UTRGV, and will offer the possibility of adding a certification to a student’s diploma if they take a certain number of the courses in Spanish within a discipline or degree plan.
