Students in Biology and Chemistry Professor Billy Samulak's Chemistry for Health Sciences Lab work on an assignment in the Antonucci Science Complex. This course is designed specifically for nursing and exercise sports majors and includes the study of selected topics from general chemistry, organic chemistry and biochemistry.

On day one of  Biology and Chemistry Professor Dr. Sean Rollins' Medical Microbiology course, students get a primer on use, cleaning, and care of the microscope. The course serves as an introduction to the biology of major groups of micro-organisms including bacteria, viruses, protozoa, and fungi. Emphasis is placed on their relationship to man as agents of infectious diseases. In the laboratory principles and practices of aseptic techniques and diagnostic identification and culture of disease entities are explored.

Second-year Nursing students went through multiple care stations at their Nursing
Medical-Surgical Nursing I Lab in the Thompson Hall Nursing Lab. This course establishes the foundation for core concepts in the nursing care of adults with common health alterations. The development of critical thinking skills is emphasized. Nursing care is presented using a nursing process framework.

Students in Biology and Chemistry Professor Billy Samulak's General Chemistry Lab try to figure out, with the help of a digital melting point apparatus, whether or not they successfully made aspirin in an earlier lab. The course explores the fundamental laws and theories of chemistry such as atomic structure, the periodic table, electrochemistry, descriptive inorganic chemistry, the gas laws, solutions, equilibrium calculations and chemical bonding. Chemical calculations are emphasized. 

Junior nursing  students take part in an Open Lab session in the Thompson Hall Nursing Education Center.

Our nursing students were immersed in a respiratory distress scenario for a pediatric patient. The understandably upset mom was played by Nursing Program Professor Deborah Benes. Our Nursing Simulation Laboratory assists nursing students in learning critical thinking and clinical judgment skills in preparation for their healthcare careers. The “manikins” act as lifelike patient simulators, wherein instructors provide real-time feedback via a control center, giving students as close to real-life simulation as possible. Fellow students watch as their classmates work through the simulation. All students and faculty debrief after the scenario.

The Biology and Chemistry Club gathered in the Game Room hang out, play pool, and more.

Students in Biology and Chemistry Professor Dennis Awasabisah's General Chemistry I Lab perform an experiment in the Antonucci Science Complex. The course explores the fundamental laws and theories of chemistry such as atomic structure, the periodic table, electrochemistry, descriptive inorganic chemistry, the gas laws, solutions, equilibrium calculations and chemical bonding. Chemical calculations are emphasized. 

Senior nursing students worked through a home hospice care scenario n our Nursing Simulation Lab. The scenario consisted of two parts. In part one, the team arrives to care for Erika, currently in home hospice whose understandably distraught sister has many concerns and questions. The team makes Erika comfortable and answers her sister's questions. In part two, Erika has passed and the team works through the process of disenrollment. Note - while two different teams are pictured, both teams worked through both part one & two. 

Biology and Chemistry Professor Dr. Erin Rehrig took students in her Life Science for Educators class around campus to identify each of the four major plant classifications; Nonvascular plants (mosses), Seedless vascular plants (ferns) Gymnosperms (pine), and Angiosperms (flowering plants).
