Minor Changes to the BS in Microbiology

Upon the recommendation of the Provost, I approve minor changes to the BS in Microbiology in the Department of Biological Sciences within the College of Natural Sciences. An 8-unit introductory sequence of BIOL 006A and BIOL 006B has been added to replace the 11-unit sequence of BIOL 009, BIOL 010, and BIOL 012 from the Core. This reduces the course requirements for the Major from 72-73 units to 69-70 units. The lower-division units have been reduced from 35 to 32 units. This was effective fall 1995.
