The University of Oregon's general science curriculum allows students to design academic programs that satisfy the requirements for a Bachelor of Science degree and provide more breadth than traditional science programs. Many exciting areas of scientific inquiry, such as the neurosciences, environmental sciences, and biophysical sciences, require general science backgrounds and encompass several science disciplines. Students planning graduate study or technical careers in one of these areas, as well as students preparing for careers in the health sciences, science education, or science-related business or social service might be best served by a well-designed multidisciplinary science program.

Prospective students must first meet with UO advisor Diane Pritchard before registering.
