About the Biology Undergraduate Minor
Students from other departments may minor in biology and must complete 18 hours in biological sciences (includes courses with BIOL, MBIO, and ZOOL prefixes). Either BIOL 1401 and BIOL 1402 OR BIOL 1403 and BIOL 1404 must account for 8 of these hours; another 6 hours must come from 3000- and 4000-level courses. No more than 6 hours of undergraduate research may apply to the minor. Students desiring to minor in biological sciences should consult the Biology advisors no later than the beginning of their junior year.
