BIOL-M 430 Virology Lecture MICR-M 310 Microbiology MICR-M 315 Microbiology Laboratory (2 cr.) BACHELOR OF SCIENCE IN BIOLOGICAL SCIENCES (All courses are 3 credit hours, unless otherwise designated.) The Bachelor of Science degree is appropriate for students oriented toward graduate school, professional school (medical, dental, pharmacy, optometry, veterinary), or positions that require greater depth in the biological and physical sciences. This degree provides a strong background in the fundamentals of biology and cognate areas and better prepares the student for a career as a professional biologist. Students planning to major in biological sciences should contact an academic advisor in biological sciences before their first semester to develop a plan for their academic course of study. DEGREE REQUIREMENTS (122 CR.) Students receiving the Bachelor of Science in Biological Sciences degree must complete the following campuswide and College of Liberal Arts and Sciences general-education requirements.

CHEMISTRY AND BIOCHEMISTRY Northside Hall 341 (574) 520-4278 www.iusb.edu/~chem Professors: G. Anderson, Feighery (Chairperson) Associate Professors: Marmorino, McMillen Assistant Professor: Muna Faculty Emeriti: Garber, Huitink, Nazaroff Laboratory Supervisor: C. Fox The Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry offers the Bachelor of Arts in chemistry, the Bachelor of Science in Chemistry, and the Bachelor of Science in Biochemistry. The Bachelor of Science in Chemistry degree is certified by the American Chemical Society. To enter one of these degree programs, students should have completed a minimum of two years of high school algebra, one-half year of trigonometry, one year each of chemistry and physics, and three or four years of a modern world language. Those who have not completed the suggested high school mathematics are advised to take a semester of precalculus mathematics as soon as possible in preparation for MATH-M 215 Calculus I. A person with a chemistry major could work as an industrial chemist; enter a professional school (medical, dental, optometry, veterinary medicine, pharmacy, law) or a medical technology program; enter graduate school in chemistry or in a related field such as anatomy, biochemistry, biophysics, chemical physics, computer
