Minor Requirements

Six (6) core courses and an additional four (4) semester hours of BIO prefix elective course credit are required: four (4) core biology courses, two (2) core chemistry courses, and 4 semester hours of elective courses. At least four (4) of the courses required for the biology minor must be taken at Rollins College or as part of a Rollins sanctioned program (e.g., Duke Marine lab, University of London). Of these four (4), at least three (3) must be BIO courses beyond BIO 120/BIO 121. To declare this minor, a student must have a minimum 2.0 GPA in at least two (2) of the courses listed on the minor map.
