For the BA Biology, Biology 494-498 courses alone or in any combination, can be used for up to 4 credits of Biology electives. Biology 495/497/498 can be used to
fulfill only one lab requirement.
For the BS Biology major, it is expected that the work involved will be in the students’ concentration.
For the BS Biology with concentration in CMB, Biology 494-498 courses alone or in any combination can be used as CMB electives up to 8 credits. Biology 495, 497
and 498 alone or together can be used to fulfill up to 2 laboratory requirements. For the CMB concentration, these courses cannot be used as a required EEB
elective.
For the BS Biology with concentration in EEB, Biology 494-498 courses alone or in any combination can be used as EEB electives up to 8 credits. Biology
495,497and 498 alone or together can be used to fulfill up to 2 laboratory requirements. For the EEB concentration, these courses cannot be used as a required
CMB elective.
There will be more summer courses. Usually the Department strives to offer core courses and one or two courses with lab. However, whether the course actually
runs or not has to depend upon enrollment.
