• ACC 120: Accounting I

  3.00 Credits

  Northern Pennsylvania Regional College

  
  This course introduces the main aspects of accounting structure and principles as presented in the form of the balance sheet equation, followed by the logical development of the subject of debits and credits, journal entries, special journals, and specific account classifications. The course provides a thorough review of how accounting transactions affect financial statements and their analysis.

• BIO 105: Environmental Biology

  3.00 Credits

  Northern Pennsylvania Regional College

  
  This is an interdisciplinary course exploring the complex relationships between the major groups of living organisms. It examines the physical and biological systems of Earth from the perspective of ecology and considers populations and communities of organisms in terms of their relationship with the environment and other organisms, rather than individuals. The course facilitates critical questioning about global and regional environmental issues, current and future energy issues, sustainable development, and viability of green initiatives.

• BIO 115: The Science of Food

  3.00 Credits

  Northern Pennsylvania Regional College

  
  Taking inspiration from the interdisciplinary collaborations between the scientific and culinary worlds, this course explores the science of food. The kitchen table is the setting for blending biology, chemistry, physics, and mathematics principles and their applications. The biochemistry of food molecules, their transformations, and the biological, chemical, and physical principles used to achieve these transformations is a key emphasis, along with the aspects of human physiology that allow for the sensation and enjoyment of food. At-home and class projects will serve as hands-on demonstrations of scientific principles at work in the kitchen.
