Added Emphasis in International Issues
Students whose biological interests include an
international aspect may complete a biology major with an Added
Emphasis in
International Issues. For example, this would be an option for students
with
interests in tropical ecology, global biodiversity, tropical diseases,
and
public health care in developing countries. In addition to completing
all the requirements for a Biology major, the student must complete the
following: 1) study abroad for a semester on a biology program in
a
country in which the student's foreign language skills are relevant,
and in
which the student examines biological issues particular to that region
of the
world; 2) five additional approved supporting courses; and 3) an
approved
biology research experience with an international component.
Examples of additional supporting courses are Biology 115 Global Biodiversity and the Biology of Conservation, Biology 116 Introduction to Community and Global Health, Environmental Studies (Geology) 194 Environmental
