Students majoring in Biology often find it easiest to study abroad during their first semester junior year. There are many programs where students can find one or two Biology courses to count towards their major. However, with careful planning, Biology students may participate in any semester study abroad program and take their Tier II Core courses while abroad. Summer and J-Term programs are very popular with all science students & are an easy way to complete core courses, gain internship or research experience, or study a language.
