Overview

The cornerstone of the Chemical and Biological Sciences is the scientific method. In the CBS Department students gain the foundational knowledge to understand the world in which they live. By understanding that world and the organisms that share it, our students can ask questions, propose answers, and carry out experiments to further our knowledge and prepare for a future in science. Scientific experiments and developments are a driving force in technology, industry, medicine, conservation, and education. To prepare for careers in these fields, students in the CBS department can choose between a variety of majors in Biology, Biochemistry, or Chemistry. Prospective majors usually begin their study of Biology, Biochemistry or Chemistry in their first year. However, transfer students who have completed their first or second years elsewhere may still be able to obtain a degree in four years if they have been following a science-track major. Emphasis on laboratory work allows students to apply theory-based lecture material while learning basic laboratory skills and using modern instrumentation and scientific computer software. All majors will also have the opportunity to complete an undergraduate research project as part of their degree. During these projects students can either work with a faculty member on campus or take advantage of summer opportunities at major research universities or in industry.

Optional Practical Training (OPT)

OPT and STEM OPT eligibility depend on maintaining F-1 status and on the program. A program counts as STEM only when its CIP code is on the official STEM list — not because its name sounds technical.
