Students wishing to pursue the minor in Neuroscience must have already completed BSCI170/171 and CHEM131&132 and (PSYC301 or BSCI353), all with a grade of C (2.0 GPA) or higher. there are a number of science course prerequisites for the required and elective classes for the Minor in neurosciences. Students will be required to submit a four year plan that includes all required courses ( and prerequisite courses) for the minor with the application.
