Requirements for Math and Science Elective
|
| Approved courses include almost any
200 level or above course having 3 or more credits
in biology, physics, biochemistry, chemistry, or
math. Approved courses include BIOL
205, BIOL 214, BIOL
215, CHEM 223 , CHEM
224 , PHYS 221 ,
and BIOC 307, BIOC
308, and BIOL/EBME
300. Students can consult with their advisor
to use another course not on this list. Understand
that one cannot double count by applying this course
toward another graduation requirement such as a technical
elective in a BME sequence. Please be advised that BIOL
216 , PHYS 204 , PHYS
208 , and PHYS 250 will
probably not be approved because of overlap with
the BME curriculum. |
NOTES
To get the informational content of
a minor in Systems Engineering, take EECS
346 as a technical elective, or EECS
352 as an open elective.
EECS
352 and EBME
380 are recommended for students interested
in immediate entry into the job market.
1. If you are certain you want to major
in BME and you are a pre-medical student, this is an
excellent slot in which to take BIOL
110 (Principles of Biology). The material
in this course is needed to take the MCAT. High school
AP biology covers this material.
2. If you have an open slot in this
semeser, EBME
202 can be taken. This is also the recommended
semester to take CHEM
113 lab (2 credit hours) which is a requirement
for entrance to most medical schools.
3. If you are focused on entering the
workplace with a BS degree, it is recommended that you
take EBME
380 (this is a more workplace relevant experience).
If your focus is on going on to graduate school, it is
recommended that you take EBME
398 (this is a more research oriented experience).
**
Students are expected to take EBME 398 or
EBME 380, but not both. If choosing the
EBME 398 option, students are encouraged
to register for this class in the fall. Students will take EBME 380 in the spring following EBME 370.
