Introduction to the Biology Department

Choosing a First Course/Placement Exams
All students considering a major in Biology should take BISC 110 and BISC 111. You may take them in any order as they are both offered in the fall and spring semesters. AP credit does not replace any course offered in the Department of Biological Sciences, nor does it count toward a major in Biological Sciences, Biological Chemistry, or Neuroscience. AP credit does, however, count toward graduation. All biology courses require the fulfillment of the Quantitative Reasoning basic skills requirement as a prerequisite.
