B.A. in Anthropology - Anthropology and Religion

Study mode: Full Time |

This program offers the student numerous ways to understand how religion works as a dynamic aspect of culture, and how individuals interact with their social environments to create systems of belief and ritual in their efforts to make sense of the world. Six courses in religion and six courses in anthropology are required with a grade of C or higher, as specified below. Those twelve courses must include Anthropology of Religion (taken either as CAS AN 384 or as CAS RN 387). Candidates for the B.A. with this joint concentration may not pursue a second concentration in religion or anthropology. They are, however, encouraged to take courses beyond the required twelve in either or both disciplines. Qualified seniors should consider Independent Work for Distinction, either AN 401/402 or RN 401/402. To ensure the most suitable program of study for the prospective student's areas of interest, courses should be selected in consultation with Professor Frank Korom, the program advisor < korom@bu.edu> For further information about the joint program, contact the program advisor or either department chair.

B.A. in Anthropology - Biological Anthropology

Study mode: Full Time |

This program in biological anthropology starts with an introductory course (AN102) that exposes students to the entire field. Students can follow up with a variety of 300 level courses (two are required), ranging from primate adaptations, to human behavioral evolution, to human population variation, to human origins. The 500 level courses, which students would normally take in their junior or senior years, are largely lab oriented and give students hands-on experience with anatomy field methods in human biology, brain and language and human reproductive ecology. Students are required to take two of these courses as well. Additional requirements for the concentration include Introduction to Cultural Anthropology (AN101), an additional course in socio-cultural anthropology, a linguistics course, and two courses in archaeology. These courses are essential to providing a broader perspective on human cultural variation both past and present and the social processes that figure so prominently in the human experience. Two upper level biology courses are also required of concentrators.

B.A. in Biology

Study mode: Full Time |

This program includes nine courses in the department and a number of related science courses. Following two prerequisite semesters of Introductory Biology (CAS BI 107 and BI 108 or 118), students select one course from each of the following areas: CAS BI 315 or 325 to fulfill the breadth requirement in physiology, endocrinology, and neurobiology (PER/Neuro); CAS BI 203, or 213 or 206 to fulfill the requirement in cell and molecular biology (CM); CAS BI 260 or 303 or 306 or 407 or 504 to fulfill the requirement in ecology, behavior, and evolution (EBE). Of the seven courses taken beyond CAS BI 107 and BI 108 or 118, five must be taken in the department, at least three must be at the 300?500 level, and three must have a laboratory or field component. A grade of C or higher is required for concentration credit in all of the following: biology courses numbered 191 or higher, required related courses, and recommended related courses.

B.A. in Biology - Cell Biology, Molecular Biology and Genetics

Study mode: Full Time |

This program has provided a deeper understanding of the molecular basis for the functioning of all living organisms. The specialization in Cell Biology, Molecular Biology, and Genetics has been designed for students who wish to focus specifically on these aspects of biology. The specialization requires two introductory biology courses, three CMG foundation courses in cell biology, genetics, and molecular biology, and four courses chosen from a list of CMG advanced electives. In addition, there are Biology breadth requirements in physiology/neuroscience and ecology/behavior/evolution, as well as standard requirements in chemistry, physics, and mathematics. CMG students gain additional, specialized knowledge and experience in one or more of the CMG disciplines and are thus well prepared for graduate or professional study in the biomedical sciences.

B.A. in Biology - Ecology and Conservation Biology

Study mode: Full Time |

This program is designed for students seeking a greater depth of training in this critical area of contemporary biology. The specialization requires two introductory biology courses, three foundation courses in genetics, ecology, and conservation biology, and seven additional advanced electives in biology, selected from a broad range of courses in forest ecology, ecosystem ecology, tropical ecology, evolution, animal behavior, behavioral ecology, vertebrate biology, plant biology, biology of mammals, ornithology, molecular phylogenetics and evolution, and marine biology. In addition to these core biology courses, students are encouraged to take environmental science and policy courses offered by the Department of Geography and Environment. Qualified students may also participate in Boston University?s semester-long international Tropical Ecology Program, other approved off-campus field courses, and/or independent research projects with faculty during the summer or academic year.

B.A. in Biology - Marine Science

Study mode: Full Time |

This program is designed to provide both Marine Science majors and interested Biology students with intensive academic and research experiences in marine science. Structured differently from the typical academic semester, students take four courses in successive blocks. Each block is typically 18 to 20 days, during which students focus on a single subject area. This structure allows students time for hands-on experiments, fieldwork outside the classroom, and a number of different opportunities for off-campus courses. In addition to on-campus courses, the program includes travel courses in Belize (Central America), in Scituate, MA. (departure point for the Stellwagen Bank National Marine Sanctuary), at the New England Aquarium, and courses in Woods Hole, MA, and the Caribbean in partnership with the Sea Education Association.

B.A. in Biology - Neurobiology

Study mode: Full Time |

This program requires students to have a broad foundation in the major disciplines of biology and at the same time provides enough flexibility for students to focus on specific areas of personal interest. The specialization requires two introductory biology courses; four foundation courses in cell biology, systems physiology, neuroscience, and animal behavior; and six additional advanced electives in biology and/or psychology. In addition to the broad range of courses, students also have many opportunities to conduct research in the laboratories of our faculty members. Research areas include: cell/molecular neurobiology, neurophysiology at both the cell/molecular and system level, and behavioral neuroendocrinology.

B.A. in Biology - Quantitative Biology

Study mode: Full Time |

This program is designed for qualified undergraduates interested in combining work in the biological sciences with training in mathematics. While allowing substantial flexibility, the specialization requires seven biology courses beyond Introductory Biology, many of which are designed to emphasize quantitative approaches to biological problems, plus five mathematics courses beyond calculus. By offering a comprehensive foundation in math and biology, the Quantitative Biology curriculum prepares students for a diversity of career options while preserving flexibility for changing student interests. Students who complete the QB specialization will be well prepared for graduate study in fields such as quantitative and mathematical biology, biomedical sciences, environmental and ecological sciences, and medicine.
