| Minors | |
| In the Biology Department, UNH offers minors in biology and bioengineering. | |
| Minor in Biology | |
| To minor in biology, students must complete the courses listed below. In some instances, an upper-level biology course can be substituted for general biology. | |
| BI 121-122 or BI 253-254 | General and Human Biology with Laboratory I and II or Biology for Science Majors with Laboratory I and II |
| BI 261 or BI 461 | Introduction to Biochemistry or |
| BI 301 | Microbiology with Laboratory |
| BI 308 | Cell Biology with Laboratory |
| BI 311 | Molecular Biology with Laboratory |
| Minor in Bioengineering | |
| No rigid group of courses constitutes a minor in bioengineering. Students wishing to follow such a program should major in one aspect of engineering and take a minor (20 credits) in biology, or the biology major program may be combined with a minor or concentration in engineering. Students should consult with the particular engineering and biology department chairs before starting the program. | |
| Teaching Biology | |
| Students interested in earning a teaching certificate in secondary education in biology may enter the graduate program at UNH. The B.S. in biology with a concentration in general biology is the best choice for a major for those planning to teach at the secondary level, but other related majors are also acceptable. Please contact the Education Department for additional information. | |
