    e -- These courses meet the general education requirements at Emporia State University. In some cases, other courses could be substituted for those listed. You should carefully check the General Education requirements for ESU.

    c -- These courses are required of all biology majors, however, a student may wish to take ZO362/363 (Human Anatomy and Physiology and Lab) and delay taking BO 212/213, MC 316/317, or ZO 214/215 to another semester. ZO 362/363 is not required for every concentration in biology but can be taken as a biology elective for any concentration. A student should check with an advisor before taking this or any biology course, other than those listed above, to determine if it fits a particular program.

    b -- These courses are required on some biology programs (for example, pre-medical or pre-physical therapy) but are not required on others. For those programs that require these courses, the courses should not be delayed as that could result in delaying graduation and/or application to professional schools.

    Course equivalencies were taken from "Transferring to Emporia State University: A comprehensive guide to making a successful transfer to ESU" and course equivalencies were correct at the time of publication. If you have a question about the most recent information concerning General Education as it relates to transferring to Emporia State University, contact the Registration Office at (620) 341-5211. Questions about the biology program in general or about specific biology courses should be referred to either David Edds (dedds@emporia.edu) or Dwight Moore (dmoore@emporia.edu) in the Student Advising Center.
