Notes:
1. This plan provides options for when courses can be taken
to fulfill Track Sheet Requirements.
2. Refer to specific Track Sheet Requirements and speak
with your advisor when choosing specific courses to finish
your degree at KU.
3. Not all Biology courses are taught each semester, please
refer to the most recent listing of Course Offerings which
can be found in the Biology Department Office (Boehm 223)
and on our website.
4. All Biology courses must have prerequisites met before
they can be scheduled.
5. For all Biology degrees, a minimum of 5 courses in
Category VI. must be at the 300 or 400 level.
6. *If Precalculus and Calculus I are both transferred, then no
additional math is needed for the Biology major.
7. ^Either Cell Biology (BIO 350, Spring semester Junior or
Senior Year), or Molecular Biology (BIO 346, Fall Semester
Senior Year) must be taken and three Category VI.C.
Electives must be taken.
