Biologists analyze organism functions at the cellular and molecular levels using genetics, biochemistry, and microscopy. They also study interactions between organisms and with the environment by examining behavior, morphology, physiology and genetics. Students can take a broad curriculum within Biological Sciences or focus on specific areas, such as ecology, evolution and behavior, cell and molecular biology, or microbiology.<\/p>\n<p>Studies in Biological Sciences have applications across many areas including agriculture, medicine, and the environment. Biological Sciences is a popular choice for students preparing for careers in healthcare, agriculture, natural resources and environmental sciences, food management, bioremediation, as well as the biomedical and biotechnology fields. A degree in Biological Sciences also prepares students for professional careers in medicine, dentistry, pharmacy, veterinary science, and education, and graduate studies in the life sciences.<\/p>\n  \n\n<\/text>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"uwm-c-link--arrow\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/uwm.edu\/cost-aid\/\">Cost and Financial Aid<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"uwm-c-link--arrow\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/uwm.edu\/biology\/students\/undergraduate\/career-resources-job-outcomes\/\">Career Resources and Job Outcomes<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n    <div id=\"program-details-jump\">\n        <a class=\"uwm-c-button uwm-c-button--s\" href=\"#program-details\" rel=\"\">Jump to Program Details <i class=\"uwm-u-pl-10 fa-solid fa-arrow-down\"><\/i><\/a>\n    <\/div>\n\n    \n\n\n    <div class=\"uwm-l-row uwm-u-mt-50\">\n                    <div class=\"uwm-l-col\">\n                <h2 class=\"size-h6 uwm-u-my-10 uwm-u-pt-10 uwm-u-border--top\">Program Type<\/h2>\n                <p class=\"size-h4 uwm-u-mt-0\">\n                    <strong>Major<\/strong>\n                <\/p>\n            <\/div>\n        \n                    <div class=\"uwm-l-col uwm-l-offset--2\">\n                <h2 class=\"size-h6 uwm-u-my-10 uwm-u-pt-10 uwm-u-border--top\">Program Format<\/h2>\n                <p class=\"size-h4 uwm-u-mt-0\">\n                    <strong>On Campus<\/strong>\n                <\/p>\n            <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"intro-sidebar\" class=\"uwm-l-col uwm-l-col--4 uwm-l-offset--1\">\n        <div class=\"uwm-mini-rfi uwm-p-card uwm-p-card--gold uwm-p-card--shadow\">\n            <div class=\"uwm-p-card--body\">\n                <div class=\"uwm-p-card--content\">\n                    <div class=\"uwm-p-card--title\">Request Information<\/div>\n                    <div id='form_47e36b1a-64dd-41ea-a6b5-b9deba75dca3'>Loading&#8230;<\/div>                <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n        \n\n<div class=\"uwm-u-flex uwm-u-flex--wrap uwm-u-flex--left uwm-u-mt-40\">\n<a class=\"uwm-c-button uwm-c-button--gold uwm-u-mr-20 uwm-u-mb-20\" href=\"https:\/\/uwm.edu\/undergrad-admission\/apply\/\" rel=\"\">Start Your Application<\/a>\n\n\n\n<a class=\"uwm-c-button uwm-c-button--gold uwm-u-mr-20 uwm-u-mb-20\" href=\"https:\/\/uwm.edu\/biology\/students\/undergraduate\/declare-your-major\/\" rel=\"\">Declare a Major<\/a>\n<\/div>\n\n<script async='async' src='https:\/\/admissions.uwm.edu\/register\/?id=47e36b1a-64dd-41ea-a6b5-b9deba75dca3&amp;output=embed&amp;div=form_47e36b1a-64dd-41ea-a6b5-b9deba75dca3'>\/**\/<\/script>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n    <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n\n\n<div class=\"uwm-l-container--base\"><hr class=\"uwm-c-hr--thick uwm-u-m-0\" \/><\/div>\n  \n\n\n\n<section id=\"program-details\" class=\"uwm-u-py-80\">\n    <div class=\"uwm-l-container--base\">\n        \n\n<div class=\"uwm-l-row\">\n<div id=\"details-main\" class=\"uwm-l-col\">\n\n<div class=\"uwm-p-tabs\" data-tabs-prefix-class=\"uwm-p-tabs\"><ul class=\"uwm-p-tablist\" data-hx=\"h2\"><li class=\"uwm-p-tablist--item\"><a href=\"#tab-major-requirements\" class=\"uwm-p-tablist--link\">Requirements<\/a><\/li><li class=\"uwm-p-tablist--item\"><a href=\"#tab-major-advising\" class=\"uwm-p-tablist--link\">Advising<\/a><\/li><li class=\"uwm-p-tablist--item\"><a href=\"#tab-major-careers\" class=\"uwm-p-tablist--link\">Careers<\/a><\/li><\/ul><div class=\"uwm-p-tabcontent\">\n<div id=\"tab-major-requirements\" class=\"uwm-p-tabcontent--pane\">\n<p>Listed below are the requirements for the Biological Sciences major.

time at 51ÁÔÆæ, you may have multiple members of your success team, including advisors, peer mentors and success coaches. Letters &amp; Science students typically work with at least two different types of advisors as they pursue their degrees: professional college advisors and faculty advisors. L&amp;S college advisors advise across your entire degree program while departmental faculty advisors focus on the major.<\/p> <p>College advisors are located in Holton Hall (or virtually for online students) and serve as your primary advisor. They are your point person for your questions about navigating college and completing your degree. College advisors will:<\/p> <ul> \t<li>Assist you in defining your academic and life goals.<\/li> \t<li>Help you create an educational plan that is consistent with those goals.<\/li> \t<li>Assist you in understanding curriculum, major and degree requirements for graduation, as well as university policies and procedures.<\/li> \t<li>Provide you with information about campus and community resources and refer you to those resources as appropriate.<\/li> \t<li>Monitor your progress toward graduation and completion of requirements.<\/li> <\/ul> <p>Faculty advisors mentor students in the major and assist them in maximizing their development in the program. You will begin working with a faculty advisor when you declare your major. Faculty advisors are an important partner and will:<\/p> <ul> \t<li>Help you\u00a0understand major requirements and course offerings in the department.\u00a0<\/li> \t<li>Explain opportunities for internships and undergraduate research and guide you in obtaining those experiences.<\/li> \t<li>Serve as an excellent resource as you consider potential graduate programs and career paths in your field.<\/li> <\/ul> <p>Students are encouraged to meet with both their college advisor and faculty advisor at least once each semester. Appointments are available in-person, by phone or by video.\u00a0<\/p> <p>Currently enrolled students should use the <a href=\"https:\/\/uwm.navigate.eab.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Navigate360 website<\/a>\u00a0to make an appointment with your assigned advisor or call (414) 229-4654 if you do not currently have an assigned Letters &amp; Science advisor.\u00a0Prospective students who haven't enrolled in classes yet should call (414) 229-7711 or email\u00a0<a href=\"mailto:let-sci@uwm.edu\" target=\"_blank\">let-sci@uwm.edu<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2>Department Advising<\/h2>\n<p>Students should <a href=\"https:\/\/uwm.edu\/biology\/undergraduate\/advising\/\" target=\"_blank\">contact an advisor<\/a>\u00a0as soon as possible in their freshman year about required courses and the recommended course sequence within Biological Sciences programs. The student should attend fall or spring departmental Open Advising or <a href=\"https:\/\/uwm.edu\/biology\/undergraduate\/advising\/\" target=\"_blank\">contact a Department of Biological Sciences faculty advisor<\/a> who will then guide the student in planning their course choices to accomplish their goals. Students should consult their College academic advisors in Holton Hall and their faculty advisors in the Department of Biological Sciences prior to each registration period.<\/p>\n<h3>Major or Minor Declaration<\/h3>\n<p>Biological Sciences students should be enrolled in <span class=\"sc_courseinline\"><span class=\"code_bubble\" data-code-bubble=\"BIO SCI 150\">BIO\u00a0SCI\u00a0150<\/span><\/span> before officially declaring a major in Biological Sciences. Students can <a href=\"https:\/\/uwm.edu\/biology\/undergraduate\/declare-your-major\/\" target=\"_blank\">declare a major or minor<\/a> by contacting a faculty advisor in Biological Sciences or attending fall or spring departmental Open Advising. Students can declare more than one major or a combination of major and minors.<\/p>\n\n<p>Failure to complete a declaration of major may result in a delay in graduation.<\/p>\n\n<\/advisingtext>\n\n\n<div class=\"uwm-p-accordion uwm-p-accordion--icon-left-circle\" \r\ndata-accordion-prefix-classes=\"uwm\" data-accordion-cool-selectors=\"1\">\r\n    <!-- wp:uwm-blocks\/accordion-item {\"title\":\"Get Advising\"} -->\r\n    \r\n<div class=\"uwm-p-accordion--header\">Get Advising<\/div>\r\n<div class=\"uwm-p-accordion--panel\">\r\n    <div class=\"uwm-p-accordion--panel-inner uwm-u-clear\">\r\n        <!-- wp:list {\"className\":\"is-style-Default \"} -->\r\n<ul class=\"is-style-Default\">\r\n    <li><strong>\r\n    Currently enrolled majors with questions about general degree \r\n    requirements?<\/strong> Make an appointment with your assigned Letters & Science \r\n    College Advisor through <a class=\"uwm-c-link--external\" \r\n     href=\"https:\/\/uwm.guide.eab.com\/\" \r\n    target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Navigate<\/a> \r\n    or email your advisor.<\/li>\r\n    <li><strong>\r\n        Currently enrolled majors with questions about the major \r\n        specifically?<\/strong> Email your faculty advisor or the \r\n        department directly.<\/li>\r\n    <li><strong>Currently enrolled 51ÁÔÆæ \r\n        students not yet in the College of Letters & Science?<\/strong> \r\n        Email <a href=\"mailto:ls-advising@uwm.edu\" target=\"_blank\" \r\n        rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">ls-advising@uwm.edu<\/a>.<\/li>\r\n    <li><strong>Haven\u2019t started classes yet at 51ÁÔÆæ?<\/strong> \r\n        Email our admissions counselor at \r\n        <a href=\"mailto:let-sci@uwm.edu\" target=\"_blank\" \r\n        rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">let-sci@uwm.edu<\/a>.<\/li>\r\n    <\/ul>\r\n<!-- \/wp:list --><\/div><\/div>\r\n<!-- \/wp:uwm-blocks\/accordion-item -->\r\n\r\n<!-- wp:uwm-blocks\/accordion-item {\"title\":\"Letters \\u0026amp; Science Degree Requirements\"} -->\r\n<div class=\"uwm-p-accordion--header\">Letters & Science Degree Requirements<\/div><div class=\"uwm-p-accordion--panel\"><div class=\"uwm-p-accordion--panel-inner uwm-u-clear\"><!-- wp:paragraph {\"className\":\"is-style-default\"} -->\r\n<p class=\"is-style-default\">In addition to the requirements for the \r\nmajor (in the\u00a0<em>Requirements\u00a0<\/em>tab of this page), students must \r\nfulfill a number of other requirements.
