Minor in Biology

A minor in biology is available to all non-biology majors. The minor program provides a concentration in modern biological sciences and is especially valuable for students considering biomedical or environmental fields. The basic requirement is fifteen semester hours in biology, of which nine hours must be at the 3000 level or higher. Further information is available from the School's undergraduate coordinator.
