Choose from:

BIOL courses for which BIOL 130L -BIOL 131L  are prerequisites and are not used to satisfy other requirements for the major.

Note: Students who take BIOL 201L  and/or BIOL 202L  for credit may not then take BIOL 340L  and/or BIOL 440L  for credit, and who take BIOL 340L  and/or BIOL 440L  for credit may not then take BIOL 201L  and/or BIOL 202L  for credit. BIOL 201L  and/or BIOL 202L  do NOT count as satisfying the requirements for BIOL classes at the 300-400 level.

BIOL internships and research (4-credit maximum and do not count as the class with a lab) - note that all BIOL research credits require an oral presentation summarizing the accomplishments of the student’s research at the end of the semester in which the credits were earned.

Breadth and Pathway courses may overlap, but all students must take a total of 36 distribution credits (including related field requirements). Students majoring in Breadth areas may apply a maximum of 6 credits to their distribution total. If applicable to a Pathway, 3 credits may come from disciplines outside of Core Breadth areas. Although foreign language and culture courses are not required within the Core, some courses in these fields may be used to fulfill distribution requirements. See the Core/LS Program website for a detailed list of all courses that satisfy distribution requirements.

• Courses addressing an interdisciplinary topic.
