Perhaps the most painful course a TAMS junior can take. But don't worry—good things come to those who wait, and good thing = second semester bio.

All tracks except for computer science and engineering are required to take at least one semester of biology. Biology is perhaps the most painful course a TAMS junior can take. But don't worry—good things come to those who wait, and good thing = second semester bio.
