BIOLOGY
(BIOL)
Undergraduate Requirements
The Biology major can be used to fulfill requirements
for admission to medical 1 , dental, veterinary, optometry or
pharmacy schools, for wildlife biology certification by The
Wildlife Society 2 .
Specific Biology courses are required for every
student majoring in Biology: Biology 1020/1021,
1022/1023, 3005 and 4099 (12 hrs). Every Biology major
must also take at least one course from each of the four
Biology list electives A, B, C, and D (14 hrs, see below).
A course taken to fulfill requirements in one listed area
may not count toward a second area. The remaining
elective biology courses may be taken to fulfill subject
area concentrations or certification requirements.
For all 4000-level botany courses, BIOL 2004/2005
or 2030 is recommended. For all 3000- and 4000-level
zoology courses, BIOL 2010 or 2030 is recommended.
For all 3000- and 4000-level cell and molecular courses,
BIOL 2020 is recommended.
A total of 45 credit hours in Biology courses for majors
are required for a Biology degree. A minimum of 16 of the
Biology elective credit hours must be 3000- or 4000 - level
courses (courses taken for the four Biology list electives
may count towards this requirement). A minimum final
GPA of 2.0 in Biology courses is required for graduation
with the B.S. in Biology. Students must earn a grade of
“C” or higher in all Biology courses.
Independent study (Biology 4003), Research
Participation (Biology 4097/4098), Cooperative
Internships (4096) and Senior Biology Seminar (Biology
4099) can be used as Biology electives (not to exceed
more than 7 credits total). Speak with your academic
advisor before enrolling in any courses.
