*"Present" counts are to be taken from the
current 2003-2005 catalog and "Proposed" counts from copy for the new
2005-2007 catalog. The "Net
Change" may reflect changes made earlier between catalogs.
**Includes required courses from other
disciplines.
***Does not include Directed Studies or Senior Honors Projects.
If individual course changes are part of an overall plan for change
within the discipline's curriculum,
please summarize the intent of the changes in the space below.
There are no changes in the Biology major.
The additional two courses (8 cr.) to the
minor are not changes in the requirements for the minor, rather in the bulletin
copy. General Chemistry I and II
have been added to the bulletin because they are prereq/coreqs for Cell Biology
and will no longer be "hidden."
The net change of +1 in courses offered
reflects the addition of CE Biol 1053:
Introduction to Insect Biology (4 cr.) (approved by the Curriculum
Committee between bulletins), deletion of Biol 4141: Comparative Invertebrate Zoology (4 cr.), which is no longer
an active course, and addition of Biol 1002: Human Nutrition (3 cr.), which
currently awaits approval.
