All students majoring in CBN need to take one 300- or 400- level bioscience, 3 or more credit course to fulfill the R11 elective requirement. This elective can be chosen from a list of preapproved courses offered by CBN or other department.

Please note that Advanced CBN courses can be used to satisfy the R11 elective requirement only AFTER the 3 Advanced CBN course requirement (R10) has been met.

Students who wish to take an elective that is not on this list must contact the Undergraduate Director Prof. D’Arcangelo (This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.) for approval.
