The Bachelor of Science with a major in biology requires a minimum of 120 s.h., including at least 70-79 s.h. of work for the major. Students must maintain a g.p.a. of at least 2.00 in all courses for the major and in all UI courses for the major. Students who wish to apply transfer credit toward graduation with a major in biology should consult their biology advisor. They also must complete the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences GE CLAS Core.

Students must complete the chemistry/mathematics/physics foundation, the biology core, and one of four tracks. The four tracks emphasize dynamic and active areas in the biological sciences. Three of the tracks cell and developmental biology, genetics and biotechnology, and neurobiology emphasize distinct areas. The fourth track integrative biology provides highly diverse content.

The major in biology prepares students to enter research or service careers associated with private industry or government programs and for primary and secondary school teaching. It also prepares them to enter advanced degree programs leading to careers in higher education and to independent research in a variety of biological fields, or for practice in health professions such as medicine, dentistry, pharmacy, nursing, veterinary medicine, medical technology, and physical therapy.
