The programs of the department are designed to introduce students to unifying concepts and broad issues in biology, and to provide the opportunity for in-depth inquiry into topics of particular interest through coursework and independent research. Introductory- and intermediate-level courses examine the structures and functions of living systems at all levels of organization, from molecules, cells and organisms to populations. Advanced courses encourage the student to gain proficiency in the critical reading of research literature, leading to the development, defense and presentation of a senior paper. Opportunities for supervised research with faculty are available and highly encouraged.

Major Requirements

Course requirements for a major in Biology include four quarters of introductory biology, BIOL110-113, six courses at the 200 and 300 level (excluding BIOL 390- 398), of which at least three must be laboratory courses; and one senior seminar course (BIOL 390-395, or 398- 399). Two semesters of supervised laboratory research, BIOL 401 or 403, may be substituted for one of the required laboratory courses. In addition, two semester courses in general chemistry and three additional semester courses in allied sciences, to be selected from Anthropology, Chemistry, Computer Science, Geology, Mathematics, Physics or Psychology are required for all majors. Selection of the three additional allied science courses must be done in consultation with the student’s major adviser and be approved by the department. Students interested in pursuing graduate studies or medical school are encouraged to take two semesters 100 Biology each of physics and organic chemistry. In addition, all COURSES biology students are encouraged to take courses that enhance their quantitative reasoning skills.

Courses in the Education Program address students interested in:

• The theory, process and reform of education • Social justice, activism and working within and against systems • Future work as educators in schools, public or mental health, community, or other settings • Examining and reclaiming their own learning and educational goals • Integrating field-based and academic learning

Each education course includes a field component through which instructors seek continuously to integrate theory and practice, asking students to bridge academic and experiential knowledge in the classroom and beyond it. Field placements in schools and other educational settings range from two hours per week in the introductory course to full-time student teaching in the certification program.

The Bi-College Education Program offers several options. Students may:

• Explore one or more aspects of education in areas of particular interest—such as urban schooling—by enrolling in single courses 148 Education

Major Requirements

WHAT IS POLITICAL SCIENCE, AND WHAT WILL THE MAJOR PREPARE ME FOR?

Political Science is the study of justice and authority, peace and conflict, public policies and elections, government and law, democracy and autocracy, freedom and oppression. More than any other social science, Political Science pursues a wide variety of approaches in explaining how and why political events and institutions come about as they do, and in evaluating ways in which polities, policies, and leaders are good and bad, laudable and criticizable. Some of these approaches are like those found in Sociology (survey research) or in Anthropology (ethnography) or in economics (cost-benefit analysis) or in the interpretive branches of history, philosophy, and literary criticism. The variety of complementary approaches housed within the same department is the great strength of Political Science as an undergraduate major. The major is excellent preparation for those planning to go on to law or public policy schools, as well as to graduate work in Political Science. Majors in the department have gone on to careers both in this country and abroad in public service, journalism, law, education, and administration. Political Science 331
