This course will provide knowledge and training on cyberbiosecurity, issues with online data and security, how we might protect our biological data, and ethical implications of biological data sharing and ownership. The course will teach critical thinking and problem-solving in a team environment, professional presentations, and writing skills in the context of completing the capstone project.

ALCE 6415 "Introduction to Graduate Teaching Scholars (GTS)" offers Graduate Teaching Scholars opportunities to observe university course organization and instruction.

Scholars work with faculty mentors to become familiar with the teaching expectations and resources for course assigned in the program.
