Course Description:
This course covers principles of microbiology and the impact these organisms have on man and
the environment. Topics include the various groups of microorganisms, their structure,
physiology, genetics, microbial pathogenicity, infectious diseases, immunology, and selected
practical applications. Upon completion, students should be able to demonstrate knowledge and
skills including microscopy, aseptic technique, staining, culture methods, and identification of
microorganisms. This course has been approved to satisfy the Comprehensive Articulation
Agreement pre-major and/or elective course requirement.

12. Attendance & Tardy Policy:
Attendance Policy
All students are expected to attend every scheduled class. Attendance is computed beginning
with the first scheduled class meeting. If an emergency prevents a student from attending class,
the student should notify his/her instructor as soon as possible.
In the event that a student does not attend at least 85 % percent of all scheduled contact hours,
the instructor may drop the student. If there are extenuating circumstances, the instructor has the
authority to make an exception to the attendance policy.
Students are expected to report to class on time. Specific guidelines regarding attendance and
tardiness are included in course outlines.
Tardy Policy
Students are expected to attend class on time and remain for the duration of the class. Late
arrivals an/or early departures will count toward total absences. Two tardies or two early
departures will count as one absence. Students whose persistent tardiness disrupts class
instruction may be dropped from the course at the discretion of the instructor.
13. Safety Rules:
All students must preview a slide presentation entitled "Laboratory Safety: Protecting Yourself
and Others"
Learn the proper escape routes in case of fire or explosion. Learn the location and operation of
the following safety equipment:
1.
2.
3.
4.
eye wash
safety shower
fire blanket
fire extinguisher
5. acid and base spill clean-up kit
6. fume hood
7. exhaust fan
14. Classroom, Shop, Clinical, or Lab Rules and Guidelines:
NO Smoking No Playing Around NO Eating or Drinking
Students with Disabilities
Students with documented disabilities will be afforded accommodations in their classes
3
consistent with the requirements of the Americans with Disabilities Act. You should notify your
instructor within the first week of classes if you have a disability for which you request
assistance. Additional information man be obtained from Student Support Services, in Warren
215, ext. 3511. Please understand that the college is unable to provide you any accommodation
unless you provide professional documentation of your disability and a timely notification of
your needs.
15. Methods of Student Evaluation (Examples: Lab Returns, Term Paper, Transcription, Exam, Timed
Writings, Pop Tests, Projects)
The final grade will be determined in accordance with the following scale:
90 - 100 = A
80 - 89 = B
70 - 79 = C
60 - 69 = D
0 - 59 = F
Inventories will be composed of objective and subjective questions.
16. Exit Criteria (Outcomes Assessment)
The student will develop and demonstrate an understanding of basic principles
underlying the science of microbiology. The cumulative grade average cumulative grade
average must be a minimum of 70 in order to earn the minimum passing grade of a C.
Final assessment will be based on the average of all grades received during the quarter.
