Applied Biology Area Minor
   The Area Minor in Applied Biology is designed to allow students to enrich studies in their major area. Students wishing to apply another science, mathematics, or engineering discipline to investigate or solve problems in biological systems are encouraged to pursue the Area Minor in Applied Biology. With proper course selection, the Area Minor will provide another marketable dimension to any Bachelor of Science degree granted by the Institute.

	The Area Minor in Applied Biology has the following requirements.
	1.	All students must complete AB110 (Biology I-Cell Structure and Function) and at least four more courses in applied biology (AB) or allied areas, above those courses already specifically required to fulfill the student’s major. a. At least two of the four electives must be AB courses. b. At least two of the electives must be 300-level or above.
	2.	Students electing to pursue the Area Minor in Applied Biology must follow a plan of study that is approved by the Area Minor Advisor. Current advisor information and a form for the planning and approval of an area minor can be obtained from the ABBE Department secretary.
	3.	Allied area courses could include: CE 361 Environmental Issues CE 460 Introduction to Environmental Engineering CHEM 330 Survey of Biochemistry CHEM 430 Advanced Biochemistry CHEM 455 Natural Products PH 302 Biophysics
