Information for Minors in Mathematical Biology

So you want to add a Mathematical Biology minor to your current major?  Good choice. Here's all you need to know:

Requirements:

In addition to the basic calculus sequence you need three required courses and two electives. The required courses are Math 222 (Differential Equations), Math 337 (Linear Algebra), and Math 373 (Introduction to Mathematical Biology) or their honors equivalents. The electives may only be selected from the list below.

Becoming a Mathematical Biology Minor:  

In order to become a Mathematical Biology minor, you need to print and complete two copies of the Request to Declare a Minor Form and bring it to the Math Office in Room 606, Cullimore Hall.
