Ecology, Evolution, and Organismal Biology (EEOB)


The Bachelor of Arts in Ecology, Evolution, and Organismal Biology

The B.A. focuses on the integration of biological systems at the whole organism level, and on how living organisms exist in populations, species, and communities within their environment. Core classes such as genetics, physiology, ecology, and evolutionary biology are combined with courses such as statistics, systematics, and organismal diversity to provide a strong foundation in biology. Students choose electives from a diverse set of classes that allow them to focus on areas of interest.

Please use the Bachelor of Arts in Ecology, Evolution, and Organismal Biology degree requirement page of the KU Academic Catalog in conjunction with your up-to-date Degree Progress Report (DPR) and please meet regularly with an academic advisor. Refer to the sample four-year guides to help you create your own degree completion plan.
