General Biology This program allows the most diversified exposure to biology of any of the majors offered by the Division of Biological Sciences. It is designed for students with broad interests who do not wish to be constrained by the specialized requirements of the other majors and who desire maximum freedom to pursue their particular educational goals.

Entered UCSD as a Freshman Entered UCSD as a Transfer General Biology Major Requirements Lower-Division Requirements BILD 1 & 2 or BILD 1 & 3 Mathematics 10A, B, C/11 or 20A, B, C Chemistry 6A, B, C, and 6BL Physics 1A/1AL, 1B/1BL, 1C/1CL or 2A, B, C and one lab (2BL, 2CL, 2DL) Upper-Division Requirements 1. Organic Chemistry (Chemistry 140A/141A and 140B/141B) 2. Metabolic Biochemistry (BIBC 102) 3. Genetics (BICD 100) 4. Two upper-division biology labs to be chosen from the following: BIBC 103, BIBC 105, BICD 101, 111, 123, 131, 133, 145, BIEB 121, 165, 167, 179, BIMM 101, 103, 121, 127, BIPN 105, or 145. 5. Eight additional upper-division courses (each course must be at least four units) taken through the UCSD Division of Biological Sciences are required. Only one quarter of BISP 195 and/or one quarter of either BISP 196, 197 or 199 may be applied toward this requirement. Subsequent quarters of 195, 196, 197 or 199 may be applied toward college and university requirements. Although students are free to design upper-division curricula which meet their individual educational goals, Molecular Biology (BIMM 100) and Cell Biology (BICD 110) are strongly recommended for those contemplating applying to graduate or professional schools. * For more information on BISP 196 (Honors Thesis) or 199 (Independent Research) click here * For more information on BISP 197 (Biotechnology Internship) click here
