Biology Minor

Biology Minor Requirements

Required Courses in the minor:

BIO 1001Principles of Biology I

4

BIO 1002Principles of Biology II

4

 

Three additional one-semester courses in Biology, at the 2000-level or above, one of which should be a laboratory course above the 2000-level.

 

BIO 1001, BIO 1002: completed with a minimum grade of C (or evidence of high achievement in equivalent course work) are prerequisites for all biology courses above the 2000 level. If a C- or below is received in either class, it must be retaken and passed with a minimum grade of C before students can progress to the 3000-level electives.

An independent study may fulfill one 3 credit elective.

Prospective biology minors interested in enrolling in Principles of Biology I or II also need to complete the Biology Placement Exam, which is an online exam located on Blackboard.
