Research can be done in a variety of disciplines and departments. In most departments students can register for undergraduate research up to three times. 3Students should choose two (2) courses from the following MIBO electives: CBIO(MIBO)(IDIS) 4100, MARS(MIBO) 4620/4620L, MIBO(POPH) 4220, MIBO 4300 (not offered on a regular basis), EHSC(MIBO)(FDST) 4310/4310L, POPH(MIBO)(IDIS) 4450/4450L, MIBO 4500, POPH(MIBO)(IDIS) 4650, MIBO 4680, or MIBO 4700 (not offered on a regular basis). 4Choose one (1) course from: BCMB 4030L, BIOL 3110L, BIOL(CBIO) 5050L, BTEC(BCMB)(PBIO) 4000L, CBIO(BIOL) 3410L, GENE(BIOL) 4210L, MIBO 4600L. Students can also use Senior Thesis (MIBO 4950) or Honors Thesis (MIBO 4990H) courses to satisfy the lab intensive requirement. Students using MIBO 4950 or MIBO 4990H to satisfy the lab intenstive requirement are required to complete at least two semesters of undergraduate research in microbiology (two semesters of MIBO 4900L or MIBO 4960H and MIBO 4970H) prior to taking MIBO 4950 or MIBO 4990H. 5Choose one (1) course from: any 3- or 4-credit hour, 3000/4000- level course in BCMB, BIOL, CBIO, ECOL, GENE, or MIBO (includes undergraduate research courses and courses cross-listed with MIBO), MARS 3450/3450L, MARS(FISH) 4380/4380L, MARS 4810, ENTO 3140/3140L, ENTO 3650/3650L, ENTO 4000/4000L, PSYC 4120, PSYC 4130, IDIS 4390/4390L, or VPHY 3100.
