Our students take innovative core courses in their major, co-taught by faculty in the natural sciences, social sciences, and humanities. These courses are complemented by an area of concentration for additional coursework, so you can conduct more in-depth study on a topic of interest.

Human Biology student uses scholarships to work in Rome
From IU to Italy! Meet Shay, a Human Biology senior who spent her summer interning at Salvator Mundi Hospital in Rome. With support from the Walter Center for Career Achievement through the Scott C. Schurz and Suzy Kriscunas Scholarships, she gained hands-on experience in international healthcare and explored unforgettable places along the way.
"The Human Biology major has given me a college experience that is truly holistic. Classes such as anatomy and physiology allowed me to gain knowledge about our body and diseases, essential for pursing a career in the medical field. My other classes helped me master the core competencies: scientific reasoning, interdisciplinarity and synthesis, collaborative problem solving, communication and writing, ethical reasoning, and civic engagement."
- Katie Guska, class of 2016
