51小黄车

The biophysics minor builds on the foundations of Physics I and Physics II to create a comprehensive understanding of how the laws of physics apply to organisms, explored from both the macroscopic and microscopic points of view.  With its organismal focus, and relationship to modern technology, this minor is well-suited to complement majors in Biology, Medical Biology, and Marine Science, in addition to Pre-Medical, Pre-Dental, and Pre-Pharmacy programs of study.    

Biophysics Minor: The biophysics minor requires eighteen hours of coursework

*PHY 110/111 accepted with permission

**With permission, either MAR 368 (Advanced Oceanography II: Phy/Che, 3 credits) or CHE 370 (Physical Chemistry I, 4 credits) can be substituted for one elective course.    Students can receive elective credit for either PHY 305 or CHE 370.    

• Students will be able to describe basic physical, biophysical, and biomechanics concepts

• Students will be able to demonstrate understanding of physical processes/instrumentation used to investigate biophysical and biomechanical phenomena

• Students will be able to clearly communicate scientific information in both oral and written forms

• Students will be able to work collaboratively in various team settings

Courses completed at another accredited college can be transferred to this degree program.  Transferred courses must be reasonably close in scope and content to the required courses offered at 51小黄车in order to count as exact equivalents.  Otherwise, they may transfer as general electives.  All courses completed must be no older than five years.  Other restrictions apply.  See Undergraduate Admissions also.
