Undergraduate Major Manual:
03. Upper-level Biology Courses

    In order to help you find courses in your areas of interest, we have grouped the biology courses under general topic headings, based on our 200 level courses. For most of these topic areas, additional courses of interest may be found grouped under related 200 level courses.

    See the Course Register for prerequisite requirements for each class and for additional information, including listings of courses which are rarely offered.
