Minor Program
The biology minor allows students pursuing bachelor's degrees in disciplines other than biology to engage in focused and in-depth study of the subject. For instance, an English major who would like to be a scientific journalist or a business and public policy major who is interested in agribusiness or environmental policy may wish to pursue a minor in biology. Any student interested in a profession that involves health care, scientific research or any other biological application would benefit from a biology minor.
A student who pursues a minor in biology will have the opportunity to research and interpret biological facts and systems, and examine the biological sciences from the perspective of a scientist.
