BIOMOLECULAR ENGINEERING AND BIOINFORMATICS MAJOR REQUIREMENTS
Transfer students need to complete the equivalents of eight courses from the following list with a GPA in those courses of 2.8 or better:
| USCS Courses | SRJC Courses |
| BME 80G/Phil 80G* | No Course Articulated |
| Biol 20A | Bio 2.1 |
|
Chem 1A Chem 1B Chem 1C |
Chem 3A and 3AL Chem 3B |
| Chem 8A | Chem 12A |
| Chem 8B | Chem 12B |
| Math 19A | Math 1A |
| Math 19B | Math 1B |
| AM 10 | Math 5 |
Biomolecular Engineering May Also Count Any of the Following:
| Phys 5A | Phys 40 |
| Phys 5B | Phys 41 |
| BME 21L | Bio 2.1 |
| AM 20 | Math 2 |
Bioinformatics Concentration May Also Count Any of the Following:
| CSE 13S | No Course Articulated |
| CSE 16 | Math 4 |
| CSE 30 | CS 10C (Minimum grade of B required) |
*Phil 7 or 12 at SRJC can meet this requirement if taken prior to registering at UCSC
Although not required for admission, transfer students are strongly recommended to complete at least ten courses from the above list if they wish to graduate in two years. Students with fewer than 10 transferable courses may find it difficult to complete the major in only two more years.
Note: There may be additional courses not required for a TAG or admissions that are recommended prior to transfer to ensure timely graduation. See the UCSC TAG Major Preparation Selection Criteria.
