This program requires an approved minor. Students are encouraged to start thinking about selecting a minor in the second year. Approved minors include: Biology, Chemistry, Computer Science, Environmental Science, Geology, GIS, Mathematics, Physical Science, Physics, or Psychology.
First Year: Joining a university-sponsored club and actively participating is strongly encouraged. Involvement in a club or activity will help you develop interpersonal skills, give you the opportunity to learn and practice leadership skills, and adds to your resume.
Second Year: The Undergraduate Research Program (URP) is a high-impact practice that gives students the opportunity to apply their knowledge outside of the classroom and dive deeper into their field of interest.
Career Information in Letters and Sciences (LSINDP 399) is a 1-credit course that focuses on transition to career and graduate school opportunities; identifying skills, strengths, and work values; creating effective job search materials; and, developing a networking strategy.
Third Year: SCIBUS 493 is an internship built into the ISBM major and is a great opportunity for practical experience. An internship is an experiential learning opportunity that provides students with hands-on experience in a potential career field, supervision and coaching from prospective employers, and the ability to learn professional norms and behaviors. In addition, completing an internship allows students to differentiate themselves in a competitive job market. Students should begin planning for an internship by the beginning of the junior year and can complete the internship in the junior or senior year.
Fourth Year: All students must earn at least 120 credits and complete undergraduate degree requirements to graduate.
Graduation: Students should apply for graduation one full semester prior to their intended graduation date.
