The B.A. degree (63 credits total) provides more flexibility in meeting the non-biology
requirements, and is especially recommended for students with significant course
requirements in other programs such as STEP (i.e. future high school science teachers)
or the Honors College.

The B.A. degrees require successful completion of 38 credits in biology, to
include:
* Biological Concepts and Methods I and II
(BIO 111, BIO 112)
