If you enroll as undeclared but are definitely thinking about becoming a biology major, it is suggested you take BIO 1011 in your freshman fall semester. Students may consider their decision during their freshman year and enter ENV SCI courses in their sophmore year. We suggest you do declare BIO or ENV SCI as your major as you enter SJU so that as a freshman you are enrolled for this early course sequence. You can switch to the other later if you decide on that. This is a typical program.
Students normally take the science requirements in the order shown.
If pre-calculus is taken in Freshman year, Calculus can be taken the next Spring and Fall. The pre-calculus counts as an elective. BIO 1011 is offered in Fall. Students starting a env sci major after the first semester will take BIO 1011 the next fall to start the bio sequence. To view env sci course descriptions B.S. in Biology curriculum B.S. in Env.
