The Department graduates approximately 30 majors per year; approximately 40% of our
majors go on to graduate school and about 15% enter one of the health professions.
Our graduates have been recent awardees of both NSF and HHMI Predoctoral
Fellowships, Rhodes Scholarships, Fulbright and Watson Fellowships, and our faculty members have
secured grant support for teaching and research from NSF, NIH, and other agencies.
For detailed information about the requirements of a biology major at Grinnell, please
visit the College Catalog.
Up to four credits of advances work in a related field may be applied toward the biology major. The current list of courses approved for cognate credit includes: ANT 221 or 325; BCM 262; PSY 336; and ENV 395 (topic changes from year to year, so check with the department).
