Biomathematics, Minor
Research in biology and health-related fields has increasingly become more quantitatively oriented. The need to analyze newly available data in fields including medicine, genetics, toxicology, ecology, evolution and natural resource management has led to a significant increase in the integration between mathematics and biology. The minor in Biomathematics capitalizes on this integration and provides the skills and knowledge in mathematical biology necessary to address today’s pressing health and environmental issues.
