The Biological Science major offers the opportunity to study a wide range of topics within biological science. The major is one of the most flexible within the B.Sc. program. After the core sciences in first and second year, students can tailor the degree to create a major all their own.
Biology courses focus on the study of structure, function, growth, origin, evolution, distribution, and sustainability of living organisms.
General education requirements – these include the non-science requirement, Math, Computer Science, and foundational science credits. Major requirements – includes the program core (first and second-year courses) as well as specific SC/BIOL courses required.
