About the Program
The sequence is designed first to give students a solid foundation in mathematics (core courses), then training in one of two biological areas that use specific types of mathematical applications to address biological questions (emphases).
Before entering the sequence, students should have two semesters of calculus and one semester of linear algebra. This is a 30-hour program including 2 hours of BSC 420.36 and 4 hours of thesis BSC 499. All students are required to take the sequence core courses of 20 hours (BSC 420.36, 499; MAT 340, 341, 350, and 351).
