The program leading to a B.S. degree in Biology is designed to provide maximum depth in the sciences and mathematics with less opportunity for free electives. Students who plan to attend graduate school or professional schools, such as those in human or veterinary medicine, most often choose this program of studies.
Further, the B.S. degree in Biology automatically qualifies a student for a minor in chemistry and thus represents more than adequate preparation for employment opportunities that require expertise in both biology and chemistry.
