Additional Information and Department Policies
Students are advised to complete BIOL 1102 Biological Principles II or BIOL 1109 Scientific Reasoning in Biology 二年级结束时，还要修化学专业的课程. 计划攻读科学或卫生专业研究生教育的学生应注意，研究生院和专业学校可能对化学有额外的入学要求, mathematics, and physics. 强烈建议学生就专业设计与教师进行协商，并通过独立研究讨论研究项目的选择, fellowship-funded summer research, and honors projects. 计划从事卫生专业的学生应联系 Seth Ramus, director of health professions advising.
The biology department participates in the biochemistry, environmental studies, and neuroscience programs. 主修或辅修生物学的学生不能同时主修生物化学或神经科学.
With departmental approval, 学生可以将在其他学院或大学修过的课程计入所学专业. 通常情况下，生物学专业不能有超过两个学分的转学，辅修专业不能有超过一个学分的转学.
大学先修课程或国际学士学位学分不能用于满足专业的任何课程要求.
生物主修或辅修的选修课可以在第二系或课程中重复计算.
Grade Requirements
主修或辅修课程只允许一个D. 这个D必须被另一门课程的B或更高的成绩所抵消，这门课程也是主修或辅修的必修课程. 主修或辅修课程必须以常规字母成绩(不是学分/D/不及格)。.
Information for Incoming Students
在太阳城娱乐，大多数对探索生物学感兴趣的学生一开始都会选这两门课 BIOL 1101 Biological Principles I or BIOL 1109 Scientific Reasoning in Biology. BIOL 1101 Biological Principles I 这是两学期生物学入门课程的第一课吗. Each year BIOL 1101 Biological Principles I is offered in the fall semester and BIOL 1102 Biological Principles II is offered in the spring semester, 允许学生在接下来的一年中探索2000级的生物课程. BIOL 1109 Scientific Reasoning in Biology 一个学期的生物学入门课程是为学生在接下来的学期探索2000级课程做准备吗. BIOL 1109 Scientific Reasoning in Biology is offered every semester.
完成生物分班考试和定量推理(QR)考试的新生将获得以下四项建议之一:
- Enroll in BIOL 1101 Biological Principles I
- Contact Pamela Bryer 讨论安置(这一类保留给那些对边界的建议 BIOL 1101 Biological Principles I or BIOL 1109 Scientific Reasoning in Biology)
- Enroll in BIOL 1109 Scientific Reasoning in Biology
- Enroll in a 2000-level biology course (a small number of students receive this placement; students seeking this placement should contact Professor Barry Logan)
入学的一年级学生应该在入学前的夏天参加生物安置和QR考试. AP/IB分数将结合生物和QR考试的信息来推荐学生. 在课程注册期间，学生要求编号在1099以上的生物课程，需要一个安置推荐.
如果学生在入学前的夏天没有完成这些考试，但希望参加生物系课程, 他们应立即完成生物分班测试并通知 Pamela Bryer 一旦完成，就可以为他们提出建议.
