Biological Science Major Requirements

Major Requirements

The Biological Science B.S. major requirements are listed in the ¶¶Òõ̽̽ Catalog under both the College of Arts and Sciences: , and the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences: . This "cross-college" major spans departments as well, offering you the opportunity to tailor your academic experience at two levels:

College-level Requirements

The major requirements for the Biological Science B.S. are the same regardless of college.  However, in addition to courses required for completion of a major program, (and University-wide courses), each college has its own requirements to ensure graduates have received a well-rounded education. Outlined below are the descriptions for the courses required by each college that hosts the Biological Science major. Note: courses taken for the major (e.g. biology, mathematics, etc.) can doubly count toward these college-level requirements, as well as the Catamount Core courses.

College-level Requirements

Body

The major requirements for the Biological Science B.S. are the same regardless of college. However, in addition to courses required for completion of a major program, (and University-wide courses), each college has its own requirements to ensure graduates have received a well-rounded education.  Outlined below are the descriptions for the courses required by each college that hosts the Biological Science major. Note: courses taken for the major (e.g. biology, mathematics, etc.) can doubly count toward these college-level requirements, as well as the Catamount Core courses.

College of Arts and Sciences (CAS)College of Agriculture and Life Sciences (CALS)
  • *: Foundational Writing (1 course), Arts (3 cr.), Literature (1 course), Humanities (2 courses), Social Sciences (2 courses), Natural Sciences (2 courses), Quantitative Reasoning (2 courses), Common Ground values (3 courses), and Language (2 courses).  *CAS Distribution requirements overlap almost entirely with Catamount Core requirements, but will require two additional Arts, Literature or Humanities course.
  • 84 credits must be from within CAS.
  • In addition to the Catamount Core requirements, CALS requires two (2): CALS 1010: Communication Methods and CALS 1020: Information Technology (or equivalent courses).

Department-level Advanced Life Science Electives

Body

The Biological Science major requires 26 credits of Advanced Life Science Electives - meaning 7-8 courses at the 2000-level (formerly 100-level) or 3000-level (formerly 200- and 300-level) that you choose from a list of over 150. These courses come from 20 different departments, and include undergraduate research. You could take a variety of different topics, or all of your credits from one field; it’s up to you. In year two, meet with an advisor to map a plan of study for completing your Advanced Life Science Electives.

The following rules apply to the Advanced Life Science Elective requirement:

  • No more than 8 credits at the 2000-level may be applied to the requirement (not including BCOR courses) except with written permission from an advisor and not exceeding three such courses.

  • With an advisor's permission, biologically relevant 5000- or 6000-level courses may be applied to the requirement.

  • Up to 6 credits of undergraduate research in any biological discipline may be applied toward the requirement. Only three of these can be taken for credit at the 2000-level, and these will be counted in the 8 credits allowed at that level.

Advanced Life Science Electives List

The courses listed below, by department, are pre-approved to count toward the elective requirement for the B.S. degree in Biological Science. If you are interested in a life science course not on this list, consult with one of the Biological Science program directors to determine whether it can be used as an Advanced Elective. The Advanced Life Science Electives being offered in a given semester can be found in the 'See Also' section of the Schedule of Courses under BioCore.

The B.S. degree in Biological Science has an additional recommendation as to the types of skills one should obtain in taking their Advanced Life Science Electives. The minimum is that students should gain 12 credits in elective courses that include a quantitative ("Q") component, 3 credits that stress oral ("O") communication, and 3 credits that stress written ("W") communication. The Skillset column below indicates which of these skills a course includes. A blank in the skillset column indicates that it is unknown whether this course fulfills any of the skillset requirements; consult the course's instructor. A * indicates an assignment is optional; a student would need to complete the assignment to earn the skillset credit.
