Biology Minor
Minor
Introduction
Learn about the biodiversity of life while developing valuable research and problem-solving skills.
Minoring in biology can add incredible value to your major area of study, especially if you’re interested in careers related to public health, research, biotechnology, the environment, or even some creative fields that lean into the sciences, such as narrative medicine or science illustration.
Hands-On Experiences
From lab work to fieldwork, this minor includes plenty of practical learning. Maybe you’ll go on an international study tour to a tropical rainforest or dive deep into aquatic life in Lake Erie.
Student Clubs & Organizations
As a biology minor, you’re invited to get involved with the Tri Beta (honor society), Pre-Health Society, or Environmental Issues Group. This is a great way to meet other science-minded students at JCU.
