Pre-med program

Students can major in any of the three majors offered by the Department of Biology and can also pursue a pre-medical program.

Students should pay particular attention to fulfilling both the degree requirments and the recommendations of Medical Schools. These requirements are described more fully at the Pre-Med link.  The pre-med program consists of

• one-year of Biology
• one-year of General Chemistry (CHEM-001/009 and -002/010)
• one-year of Organic Chemistry (CHEM-115 through -118)
• one-year of Mathematics (MATH-035 and MATH-036 or -041)
• one-year of Physics (PHYS-041, -042)

There is considerable overlap between these requirements and all of the majors offered through the Department of Biology.
