A Biology Major with an Added Emphasis

Increasingly, biological scientists address questions by working in groups that are interdisciplinary in nature. Thus, interdisciplinary fields of study have emerged that cannot be adequately covered within a single department. The Department has provided students the opportunity to major in Biology with an added emphasis in three interdisciplinary fields: Biochemistry/Molecular Biology, Neuroscience, and International Issues.   In all three cases, students must successfully complete the all the requirements for a Biology major, including the supporting coures.  The additional courses requirements for the three respective added emphases are described via the links below.
