itemprop=\"text\" ><p>Juniors and seniors who wish to graduate with honors in biology must petition the Biology Program for admission to the honors program and have support from a faculty mentor. Honors students conduct independent research with a biology faculty mentor, prepare a written report in accepted editorial style, and make a formal oral presentation. Honors graduates must have a minimum 3.5 GPA in all biology courses taken for the major and a minimum overall 3.00 GPA. These GPA requirements apply to coursework taken at Â鶹´«Ã½ only. Completion of the honors program satisfies the Senior Capstone requirement.
