A minor in biology requires the completion of a minimum of 21 semester credit hours in Biology. A student pursuing a minor in Biology will be required to successfully complete BIO 111, 210, and 212. Additional courses are chosen from the remaining core requirements (BIO 302, 303, 307, 316, 408). One course may be selected from the biology electives to complete the required 21 semester credit hours. BIO 401 and 410 can be taken, but they cannot be used as part of the required 21 semester credit hours for a minor in Biology.
