ADVISING INFORMATION FOR UNDERGRADUATE MAJORS IN THE BIOLOGICAL SCIENCES
Return to Spiegel Homepage

THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION MAY PROVE USEFUL IN HELPING YOU TO PLAN YOUR MAJOR IN ONE OF THE BIOLOGICAL SCIENCES. IT INCLUDES ADVICE FOR PLANNING YOUR SCHEDULE DURING YOUR TIME AT THE UNIVERSITY OF ARKANSAS, AND IT PROVIDES CHECKLISTS TO HELP YOU KEEP TRACK OF YOUR PROGRESS TOWARD YOUR DEGREE.
 Advisors' Schedules

The faculty of the Department of Biological Sciences will have advising appointments available during the periods listed below. This does not mean you can just drop in on your advisor at any time during these periods; it means that you will have to make your appointment for a time slot when your advisor is available. Go to your advisor's office in advance, and sign up for an advising appointment during these periods.

It is your responsibility to know your progress toward your degree. Therefore, make sure you fill out the Checklist (below) that is appropriate for your degree, and bring it with you to your advising appointment. You should also have an idea of the classes you want to take in Spring 2001. Therefore, you should check the Schedule of Classes Web Page, http://www.uark.edu/classes/soc.html, to develop a preliminary schedule prior to your advising appointment. (Note: the Web version of the Racing Form is much more accurate and up to date than the hard copy.)

Some Suggestions for Students Majoring in the Biological Sciences

Starting Points: You may come with credentials that allow you to choose to be exempt from Principles of Biology*. You may also be ready to start other subjects with courses that are more advanced than the entry level courses which most students take. You may also arrive on campus needing to take some courses to strengthen your background. Your exact plan of study, therefore, should be worked out with your advisor.

Recommended Goals to Meet in Your Curriculum

*Exemption criteria for Principles of Biology: 4 or 5 on AP Biology Exam, pass CLEP in Biology, > 30 on ACT Science Reasoning, pass department Exemption Exam


Some Suggestions for Honors Students in the Biological Sciences

Starting Points: We expect that you, as a candidate for the Honors Program, may come with credentials that allow you to choose to be exempt from Principles of Biology*. You may also be ready to start other subjects with courses that are more advanced than the entry level courses which most students take. Your exact plan of study, therefore, should be worked out with your advisor.

Goals to Meet in Your Curriculum

*Exemption criteria for Principles of Biology: 4 or 5 on AP Biology Exam, pass CLEP in Biology, > 30 on ACT Science Reasoning, pass department Exemption Exam

Checklists of Progress toward Undergraduate Degrees in the Department of Biological Sciences

The Department has five Undergraduate majors, the BS in Biology, the BA in Biology, the BS in Botany, the BS in Microbiology, and the BS in Zoolology. You may use the checklists below to keep track of your progress toward your degree. Bringing this information with you to advising sessions will help you and your advisor to track your progress, plan your future, and solve any problems you may encounter.
