Electives: 10.-15. Five biology electives including three with laboratory and two at the 3000level, with or without a laboratory. Students must choose at least one from each of the two categories of biology electives. The remaining courses are chosen according to interest.

Category 1: Cellular/Molecular Electives

BIOL2115 Determinants of Health and Disease BIOL2119 Current Topics in Biological Research BIOL2151 Marine Microbiology with lab BIOL3101 Developmental Biology with lab BIOL3103 Cell Biology with lab BIOL3119 Immunology BIOL3125 Molecular Biology BIOL3127 Microbiology with lab BIOL3132 Advanced Topics in Biochemistry BIOL3135 Cancer Biology BIOL4194 /BIOL4195 Research Internships in the Natural Sciences I and II*

Category 2: Organismic/System Electives

BIOL2113 Human Nutrition BIOL2121 Human Health and the Environment with lab (SJ) BIOL2135 Anatomy and Physiology I with lab BIOL2137 Anatomy and Physiology II with lab BIOL3101 Devlelopmental Biology with lab BIOL3105 Endocrinology BIOL3151 Exercise Physiology with lab

*BIOL4194 counts as a 3000-level biology laboratory elective for a B.S. in biology if the entire two-semester internship sequence (BIOL4194 and BIOL4195) is completed. The student’s advisor determines the appropriate category for the internship. Students receive academic credit for the second internship course (BIOL4195), but it would not be counted as one of the 11 required biology courses.

PRE-MEDICAL, PRE-DENTAL, PRE-VETERINARY STUDENTS

Students with the goal of medical, dental, or veterinary school should refer to page 148 for detailed information concerning the program of study at Emmanuel College.

B.S. BIOLOGY WITH CONCENTRATION IN BIOCHEMISTRY

The program provides students with a deeper understanding of the structure and function of molecules that are necessary for the biology of cells and organisms.

In addition to concentration electives, students must complete the additional elective requirements to satisfy the major. 2022-2023 Academic Catalog
