General Education and Common Core Courses

BIOL 0102 - Environmental Biology for a Changing World , BIOL 0104 - Human Biology , and BIOL 0106 - Practical Biology for the World Today  each satisfy General Education and Common Core requirements, however they DO NOT satisfy requirements for the Biology Major and should not be taken by students within the major. MATH 0105 - Calculus I  and MATH 0108 - Elementary Statistics  each satisfy General Education and Common Core requirements. BIOL 0237 - Human Anatomy and Physiology I  and BIOL 0278 - Biostatistics  each satisfy Common Core requirements, but do not satisfy General Education requirements. Courses should be selected with guidance from faculty advisor.
