Biology, B.S. (6210)

B.S. Curriculum. The Department of Biological Sciences offers three concentrations leading to the Bachelor of Science degree. A minor is not required. No more than four credit hours of research participation (BIOL 451 -BIOL 454 ) may be counted toward the major. Majors in any concentration are required to complete all of the general education requirements for the Bachelor of Science degree.

While there are several courses that each of the concentrations share, differences in specific prerequisites and requirements do exist. Students should work closely with their academic advisers in order to prepare a course of study.
