A
minimum of 20 credits of coursework from among the required and
elective courses. Proficiency in microbiology, not including quantitative skills (8), must be completed in residence. Of these 20
credits, at least 12 credits must be completed from 680 courses.
This
rule is intended to assure that students receiving degrees from Rutgers University–New Brunswick have taken a minimum number of courses in their major
with New Brunswick faculty. Please keep in mind that although a course
may transfer from another institution into one of the Rutgers-New
Brunswick schools, it will not necessarily be accepted toward the major
in microbiology. Therefore, transfer courses must be evaluated and
accepted by the program director in order to count toward the major.
