Human Anatomy
Philosophy 215, Introduction to Ethics, is strongly recommended for Human Biology. The student should be aware that most graduate programs and many health care professional schools require an overall minimum GPA of 3.0 and that a grade of ”C” or better was earned for all science courses. Students are encouraged to determine the prerequisites for their chosen career before they make the choices allowed in this major. Some careers require Organic Chemistry (CHEM 302) so the Basic Organic and Biochemistry (CHEM 112) course is not acceptable. The same is true for Introduction to Probability and Statistics (MATH 210) and Biostatistics (MATH 318).
