Majors and Minors

 

We are happy to announce that we have made major changes to our major, minor and curriculum.  The new biology major gives students the opportunity to focus on an area of study that will help cultivate their interest in biology and reach their career goals.  Each student can design his/her area of concentration.  Some possible areas of concentration are, behavior and neurobiology, biochemistry, cell biology, development, ecology, evolutionary ecology, genetics, genomics, bioinformatics and computer biology, human biology, molecular evolution, molecular genetics, paleobiology, physiology and organismal biology, plant biology, plant molecular biology and secondary education.

If you are a member of the class of 2008 or the class of 2009, please click here for information that is specific to 08s and 09s.

If you are a member of the class of 2010 or 2011, please click here for information that is specific to 10s.

We encourage you to talk with any member of the biology department faculty to design an area of concentration that meets your needs.

Students interested in designing a modified major, please contact Prof Peterson or Prof. Smith.

If you are interested in learning more about the biology minor, please contact Prof. Calsbeek, Prof. Peterson, Prof. Smith or Prof. Witters.
