The Country:

Located on the northeast coast of Spain, Barcelona is the largest industrial city of Spain and the busiest commercial port of the Mediterranean. It is Spain’s second most populous city and, due to its proximity to France, an extremely cosmopolitan, open and integrative city. Barcelona enjoys remarkable warm weather for most of the year, beautiful beaches, striking architecture and a vibrant city life. Barcelona is also a hub for biotechnology and biomedical innovation in Europe, hosting three of the largest biomedical research institutes in Europe, eight research hospitals and three world-class research universities. Barcelona is not just a perfect destination for students to hone their language skills and enjoy its vibrant city life, but also an ideal environment to learn biology and establish long-lasting peer networks to drive future internationally-oriented careers.

 

Faculty Overview: 

Dr. Ivan Erill, an associate professor in Biological Sciences, and an affiliate associate professor in Computer Sciences, is the director of this study abroad program. Dr. Erill is a native of Barcelona and has intimate knowledge of the city, the region and its culture. Due to his extensive familiarity with the area, Dr. Erill will offer students additional outside activities that they might not otherwise consider, such as a day at a local beach followed by an authentic local dinner.

Spring 2018 Upper Level Lab Elective Option

BIOL 306L: Projects in Synthetic Molecular Biology has recently been updated to allow more students to participate during the Spring 2018 semester. This could serve as an upper level lab elective for Biology majors.

This laboratory course, designed to be a Course Based Research Experience (CURE), will introduce students to Synthetic Biology. Students will use a laboratory strain of E. coli to genetically modify the bacteria in ways that will increase our understanding of gene regulation, enzymatic activities, or genetic circuits.  Students will familiarize themselves with the techniques needed to modify E.coli.  Students will design their own synthetic biology project and after consultation with the instructor, the rest of the semester students will be constructing their synthetic biology project (a modified E. coli strain of their design). 

Pre-reqs: BIOL 300L, BIOL 302, and BIOL 303 (all with a grade of "C" or better.
