   (F) - Fall only course
   (S) - Spring only course

   ¹

   This course has a co-requisite of 叠滨翱尝听2207.

   ²

   Only one of these courses (叠滨翱尝听3204, 叠滨翱尝听3324, or 叠滨翱尝听4375) need be selected to meet the requirement of the major. If additional courses from this group are taken they may be used to fulfill the requirement for upper-level electives.

   ³

   Up to one (1) Elective (3-4 s.h.) may be replaced by a Cognate elective selected from the following:聽惭础罢贬听1042/惭础罢贬听1942; or 惭础罢贬听2043/惭础罢贬听2943 (but only one of these math courses, and 惭础罢贬听1042/惭础罢贬听1942 may only count if 惭础罢贬听1044 is used to satisfy the second math course requirement in the major); or 笔贬驰厂听2511 补苍诲听笔贬驰厂听3511.

   ⁴

   Students may fulfill one upper-level elective by completing a total of 6 credits of research. A maximum of 3 credits may come from the junior level research course聽叠滨翱尝听3082聽and the remaining 3 credits must come from a senior level (4000+) research course. Students may also complete all 6 credits using two semesters of the senior research course if they prefer. Consult with your departmental advisor to determine which course(s) are appropriate. Once completed, students must seek approval from a CST advisor to obtain the waiver for credit towards one upper-level elective.

   ⁵

   Note that some of the upper-level elective choices in CIS require additional prerequisites that you may need to plan for. Please consult with a CST advisor if you are considering choosing electives from CIS.

   With the exception in footnote 4 above, the research and independent study courses shown below do not count as Integrative Genetics and Genomics electives, but they may count as free elective credits toward graduation. Most research courses can only be taken ONCE for a letter grade. Check individual course descriptions for details and/or exceptions.

   Note: Grades of C- or higher are required unless otherwise specified in all courses for the major, including course prerequisites.聽The College of Science and Technology requires that students have a GPA of at least 2.00 overall and at least 2.00 in the courses applicable to their major and/or minor GPA to graduate.

A total of one semester of Biology research courses numbered lower than 4000 (to include: 叠滨翱尝听2082, 叠滨翱尝听3082, 叠滨翱尝听3181, and 叠滨翱尝听3681) may be taken for a letter grade. Any additional semesters in research courses in this category can be taken only on a CR/NC basis.
