Must earn "C" or better in each course

 

I. BASIC REQUIREMENTS

II. ADVANCED PROGRAM (>24 CREDITS)

A. Biochemistry and Statistics (6cr.): Either BCHM 461 or BCHM 463 and one of the following: BCHM 462; BCHM 465; BIOM 301; STAT 400; STAT 464 or PSYC 200 (need permission from PSYC department). NOTE: BCHM 461 is a pre-requisite for BCHM 462 and BCHM 463 is a pre-requisite for BCHM 465.

B. Upper Level Courses (>18cr.): Courses must be selected from the approved list below and include two upper level (300-400) laboratory/field courses (designated by :L). At least two courses must be selected from the Physiology core and two courses from the Ancillary group. BSCI 440 and BSCI441 taken together count as one PHNB core course. BSCI 422 and BSCI 423 taken together count as one PHNB ancillary course.
