L490 (top)
L490 Independent Study gives students introductory experience with a research program,allows intensive inquiry into a field of study, prepares students for postgraduate study, and fulfills Honors Degree requirements.
Honors courses
In order to provide opportunities and challenges for superior students, the department offers honors courses equivalent to its main courses and designated with an "S." These small-enrollment courses offer tightly integrated lecture and laboratory experiences that include an experimental approach and a quantitative orientation, in addition to covering the basic material taught in the regular courses. Candidates for an honors degree (see information above) need not necessarily take these courses but would clearly benefit from them.
These courses include S211, Honors Molecular, S311, Honors Genetics, and S318, Honors Evolution. S211 and S318 are offered in the Fall semester only, with S311 being offered only in the Spring semester. Authorization is required so please contact the Biology Advising Office in Jordan Hall A115 if you would like to take one of these courses. You have to have a 3.3 GPA overall and also have completed the pre-requisites.
How to obtain a course authorization (top)
Obtain on-line authorization for authorized sections of biology and microbiology courses by contacting Alice Eads in the Biology Advising Office (855-3810 or email Alice). Please be aware that all honors courses require a MINIMUM GPA of 3.3.
