better. It is highly recommended that all students complete their math and statistics requirements by the end of their second year. Candidates for the bachelor of science degree must complete all required coursework in the Department of Biology listed above and complete CHM 211, 212 Chemical Principles I and II, CHM 311, 312 Organic Chemistry I and II; one mathematics course chosen from MTH 151 Calculus I, or MTH 152 Calculus II (or equivalent); and one statistics course chosen from MTH 345 Elementary Statistics, MTH 346 Statistics for Scientists or PSY 355 Statistics for Scientific Research. Candidates must additionally complete one year of physics (either PHY 111, 112 Elementary Physics I and II, or PHY 121, 122 General Physics I and II) all with a minimum grade of C or better. Students planning on graduate work in biology are strongly recommended to earn the B.S. degree and take additional coursework in biochemistry and computer science.
