This is a course offered by UC Berkeley’s Integrative Biology department. It addressed an analysis of the patterns and processes of organic evolution. History and philosophy of evolutionary thought; the different lines of evidence and fields of inquiry that bear on the understanding of evolution. The major features and processes of evolution through geologic times; the generation of new forms and new lineages; extinction; population processes of selection, adaptation, and other forces; genetics, genomics, and the molecular basis of evolution; evolutionary developmental biology; sexual selection; behavorial evolution; applications of evolutionary biology to medical, agricultural, conservational, and anthropological research. I think that this course would be a great supplemental to the current IB C32 we are currently taking, as we would be able to understand humans more and thus cater our designs toward them to a better extent.
