Program Requirements


This multidisciplinary minor is open to students majoring in Biology or in other disciplines. To complete this minor, students must take ASTR 4510 and ISCI 4500, four credits each, and two semesters of the one-credit course ISCI 4510. Two additional courses outside the major field of study must be selected from the following:

  •  Any course in BCBP Credit Hours: 4

Additional Information


The requirement that the two selected courses must be outside the major field of study is reduced to one in the case of a double major, provided both majors are in primary relevant areas of study (i.e., biology, chemistry, geology, and physics).
