Biology (B.A.)

The bachelor of arts program in biology is designed to be merged with studies in a non-science area. The resulting program will retain the elements of biology necessary for the successful application of this science in another discipline. Students will be advised to choose a minor; some possibilities include management, pre-law, professional writing and computer information systems. Other combinations may be arranged to fit the needs of students. To complete the biology (B.A.) major, a minimum of 120 credits is required, the last 30 of which must be earned at La Roche University. The following course work is required for completion of degree:

• 29 credits in Major Requirements
• 20 credits in biology electives level 2000 or above
• 37 credits to satisfy remaining Core Curriculum requirements not covered above.
• 34 credits of general electives selected with the approval of the academic advisor
