Eastern Campus Biology Relocation Pathway

Program Overview

The Biology Relocation Pathway, offered through the College of Arts and Sciences, is available at all 5 Ohio University regional campuses. It offers a pathway through which students complete two years of very specific coursework before relocating to the Athens campus to complete the B.S. in Biological Sciences.

By completing the Biology Relocation Pathway at a regional campus, students receive support and advising from the perspective of the College of Arts and Sciences while working towards a degree in biological sciences.
