Biology: Biomedical Engineering majors may obtain a B.S. degree by completing a minimum of 29 biology credits. Biology: Biomedical Engineering majors are required to take at least four upper-division courses and earn a grade of C- or above. At least one course must be taken from each of three Biology Content Categories. Each course may count for only one content category for a student. Students may complete a 3:2 program with Washington University-St. Louis, in which case, one Biology Content Category course from the first year in the graduate program at Washington University will be transferred back to Millikin to complete the Content Category requirements.
