This is a flexible program designed for students who want a solid biology education and who don’t require the same rigor in the associated fields of math and chemistry compared to the B.S. in Biology. With fewer required major courses, students have more choice in elective courses, allowing them to earn a minor or take courses that would help them with employment or admission to professional schools. This program is recommended for students interested in physical therapy, or technician level jobs in biotechnology or environmental sciences, or even education.
