BIOLOGICAL SCIENCES
This recommended transfer program
for biological sciences students meets the requirements for an associate
in science degree and recommendations of the Illinois Articulation Initiative
biological sciences major panel. Students should decide the specialization
within the biological sciences major as early as possible, preferably
by the beginning of the sophomore year. Students are strongly encouraged
to complete an associate in science degree prior to transfer. Requirements
for schools vary. Students should check individual school requirements
before completing the curriculum as outlined.
