The Biomathematics minor is an interdisciplinary program designed primarily for students majoring in math or biology who are interested in the expanding field of mathematical modeling of biological phenomena.
The requirements for a Biomathematics minor are as follows:
I. The Core (21 hours)
II. Advanced Interdisciplinary Study (7 hours)
Complete one of the following pairs of courses. The BIOL course should be taken first for either option, as the MATH course will build on the knowledge from the BIOL course. The two MATH courses are offered alternate years, so students should check with the MATH department to ensure they can complete their desired option.
Ecology option
or
Genetics option
III. Contemporary Topics and Research in Biomathematics (at least 2 hours)
Complete all of the following:
This discussion format course focuses on contemporary subjects in biomathematics chosen by the instructor and students. (Offered every semester) Prerequisite: Consent of instructor
Individual Research in biomathematics conducted with faculty. Course credit will depend on the nature and scope of the proposed research project. Prerequisites: Consent of the instructor and approval from the minor director
Advanced study of a topic or field not covered by other courses. May be repeated for credit for different topics. (Offered occasionally). Prerequisites: consent of instructor
This discussion format course focuses on contemporary subjects in biomathematics chosen by the instructor and students. Students will also be expected to present the results of their own research project, including relevant background from the literature. (Offered every semester) Prerequisite: BIMA 2094 and Consent of instructor
