The Department of Biological Sciences offers Bachelor of Science (BS) and Bachelor of Arts (BA) degrees. The coursework in the first year for the B.S. and B.A. degrees are identical, allowing students to make a choice between majors as late as the second year. The B.S. curriculum involves more rigorous training in mathematics, and computer Science. Students in both programs are required to complete a minimum of 38 credits in Biology. Accelerated 7-year Biology BA/MD/DMD/DDS/OD/DPT programs are also available. Contact the Albert Dorman Honors College for a sample program and information. The curricula described below are for students entering or who entered NJIT as freshmen in the fall of 2011 or later. Students entering before that date may have a different program and should consult the Academic Coordinator to determine which curriculum applies.

FIRST YEAR:
1st semester:This curriculum represents the maximum number of credits per semester for which a student is advised to register. A full-time credit load is 12 credits. First-year students are placed in a curriculum that positions them for success which may result in additional time needed to complete curriculum requirements. Continuing students should consult with their academic advisor to determine the appropriate credit load.

Total Minimum Credits: 124 Biology Credits: 35 (Including General Biology I, II, and Foundations of Biology) General University Requirements and Electives All students are required to satisfy the General University Requirements (GUR). All GUR courses and additional mathematics, technical, and free electives are to be selected in consultation with a faculty advisor in the Department of Mathematical Sciences. Refer to the General University Requirements section of this catalog for further information on electives. Computer Science GUR: BNFO 135 Management GUR (3 credits): Students take IE 492 or Mgmt 390. Physical Education GUR: Students who register as full-time undergraduates for two or more consecutive semesters must take two PE courses, one of which must be a 100-level fitness core course. Students are urged to complete the requirement as soon as possible. Social Science Lower Level GUR (6 credits): Take two courses from ECON 265, 266, EPS 202, STS 257, 258 or approved introductory courses in basic social sciences at Rutgers-Newark to fulfill this requirement. English/Communication/Cultural History GUR (6 credits): Biology majors are required to take HUM 101 and 102. The remaining three credits can be satisfied by HUM 211, 212 or Hist 213 or any 200 level history course at Rutgers-Newark. Lit/Hist/Phil/STS GUR (3 credits): Students must take one 300-level course from any of the following fields: literature, history, philosophy, science, technology, and society (STS), or an approved 300-level course at Rutgers-Newark. Open Elective in Humanities and Social Science GUR (3 credits): Students must take one 300-level course from any of the following fields: English (Eng), history (Hist), literature (Lit), philosophy (Phil), science, technology, and society (STS), social science (SS), or theater (Thtr). Students also may satisfy this requirement with Architectural History IV (Arch 382) or by taking an approved 300-level course at Rutgers-Newar Senior Seminar in Humanities and Social Science GUR (3 credits): All students, except those enrolled in the honors college, take one of the following: HSS 401, HSS 402, HSS 403, HSS 404, HSS 405, HSS 406, HSS 407, HSS 408, HSS 409. Students enrolled in the honors college take one from HSS 491H-499H.
