Biological Sciences Minor
Requirements
Students wishing to complete this minor must take at least 15 credits of 2000-level and higher courses from Ecology and Evolutionary Biology, Molecular and Cell Biology, and Physiology and Neurobiology. It is strongly recommended that at least one course include laboratory or field work. Courses chosen for the minor must include at least one course or course sequence from each of the following three groups:
| Course | Title | Credits |
|---|---|---|
| Group A | ||
| MCB 2000 | Introduction to Biochemistry | 4 |
| MCB 2210 | Cell Biology | 3 |
| MCB 2400 | Human Genetics | 3 |
| MCB 2410 | Genetics | 3 |
| MCB 2610 | Fundamentals of Microbiology | 4 |
| MCB 3010 | Biochemistry | 5 |
| Group B | ||
| EEB 2244E | General Ecology | 4 |
| or EEB 2244WE | General Ecology | |
| EEB 2245 | Evolutionary Biology | 3 |
| or EEB 2245W | Evolutionary Biology | |
| Group C | ||
| PNB 2250 | Comparative Animal Physiology | 3 |
| PNB 2264 & PNB 2265 | Human Physiology and Anatomy and Human Physiology and Anatomy | 8 |
| PNB 2774 & PNB 2775 | Enhanced Human Physiology and Anatomy I and Enhanced Human Physiology and Anatomy II | 8 |
PNB 2264 Human Physiology and Anatomy-PNB 2265 Human Physiology and Anatomy or PNB 2774 Enhanced Human Physiology and Anatomy I-PNB 2775 Enhanced Human Physiology and Anatomy II must be taken in sequence to be counted towards the Biology minor.
The minor is offered jointly by the departments of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology, Molecular and Cell Biology, and Physiology and Neurobiology and cannot be earned by students majoring in any of these departments.
