Special Note on Core Curriculum Requirements for all Biology Majors\u2014All Concentrations<\/span><\/h4>\n
While CH-251<\/span><\/span>-CH-252<\/span><\/span>, Organic Chemistry I and II and the associated labs CH-251L<\/span><\/span> and CH-252L<\/span><\/span>, are not required for Biology (Biol\u00adogy Concentration) majors, these courses are strongly recommended since they are required for many post-graduate programs (health careers and\/or graduate school).<\/span>\n<\/p>\n\n

Articulations with Professional Schools<\/span><\/h3>\n
Saint Peter\u2019s\u00a0University has entered into a series of formal agreements with several Professional Schools to enhance the opportunities of students majoring in the sciences. See the separate listing for Pre-Professional Programs for details.<\/span><\/p>\n
Core Courses Offered for Non-science Majors<\/span><\/h3>\n
The 100-level<\/span> courses are offered for non-science majors to satisfy the Core Natural Science Requirements and are not open to majors in Biology or the Natural Sciences. Most include lectures and demonstrations only; some, such as BI-185<\/span><\/span>, may include a laboratory component as well.<\/span>\n<\/p>\n\n<\/colgroup>
