Biology — Bachelor of Science The Bachelor of Science degree with a major in biology prepares students for graduate study in the biological sciences by including the course requirements prescribed by many of the leading graduate-level biology degree programs in the nation. This major enhances the student’s depth of knowledge in biology and increases the breadth of exposure to chemistry, mathematics, and physics. Course requirements involve 75 hours including: Biology Core Requirements......................................................27 BIO-1115 Biology I: Cell Biology................................................ 4 BIO-1120 Biology II: Zoology..................................................... 4 BIO-2500 General Botany......................................................... 4 BIO-2600 General Ecology....................................................... 4 BIO-3300 Genetics. .................................................................. 4 BIO-3710 Biochemistry............................................................. 4 BIO-3800 Biological Research ................................................. 2 *BIO-4800 Senior Seminar — Biology...................................... 1 *Capstone Course Cognates.....................................................................................20 CHEM-1110, 1120 General Chemistry I and II........................... 8 CHEM-3510 Organic Chemistry I.............................................. 4 MATH-1700 Calculus and Dynamical Systems for the Life Sciences................................................................................ 4 PHYS-1010 College Physics I.................................................... 4 Track Options — Select one......................................................28 General Track BIO/ENVS/MBIO-2XXX, 3XXX, or 4XXX................................ 10 BIO(A)/ENVS/MBIO/CHEM/PHYS/MATH/GMTH/ GEOL-2XXX, 3XXX, or 4XXX.............................................. 10 CHEM-3520 Organic Chemistry II. ........................................... 4 PHYS-1020 College Physics II.................................................. 4 Ecology Track BIO-3200 Advanced Ecology.................................................... 3 or ENVS-3100 Geographic Information System.................4 BIO-3430 Conservation Biology for Wildlife and Zoos. ............. 3 BIO-3610 Ecophysiology........................................................... 3 BIO/ENVS-3XXX, or 4XXX....................................................... 9 BIO(A)/ENVS/MBIO/CHEM/PHYS/MATH/GMTH/ GEOL-2XXX, 3XXX, or 4XXX.......................................... 9–10 Plant Science Track BIO-3410 Parasitology and Invertebrate Zoology. .................... 3 BIO-3520 Plant Taxonomy. ....................................................... 3 BIO-3530 Agricultural Science.................................................. 3 BIO/ENVS-3XXX, or 4XXX....................................................... 9 BIO(A)/ENVS/MBIO/CHEM/PHYS/MATH/GMTH/ GEOL-2XXX, 3XXX, or 4XXX.............................................. 10 Pre-Medical Sciences (Med/Dent/Optom) Track BIO-2210 Microbiology.............................................................. 4 (or BIO-4350 Immunology................................................ 4) BIO-3450 Human Structure and Function I............................... 4 BIO-3460 Human Structure and Function II.............................. 4 CHEM-3520 Organic Chemistry II. ........................................... 4 PHYS-1020 College Physics II.................................................. 4 BIO(A)/ENVS/MBIO/CHEM/PHYS/MATH/GMTH/ GEOL-2XXX, 3XXX, or 4XXX................................................ 8 Page 196 2022–23 Undergraduate Academic Catalog Department of Science and Mathematics Biology — Bachelor of Science
