FOR BIOLOGY MAJORS

The following is a suggested course sequence for biology majors to complete the Neuroscience minor (minor courses in red).  Since the minor requires at least 2 upper-level courses outside of one's major, biology students may consider the "systems" or "computational" tracks in choosing these courses.  The sequence below emphasizes the systems track in neuroscience study.  Other possible courses and/or sequences may also fulfill both the major and minor; consult with your advisor or catalog for remaining requirements for the biology major, and the director of the Neuroscience program for further options for fulfilling the minor.
