MAJOR OVERVIEW SAMPLE COURSE LIST • BIS 102: Structure and Function of Biomolecules(3) • BIS 104: Cell Biology (3) • BIS 105: Biomolecules and Metabolism • BIS 181: Comparative Genomics (3) • CHA 101: Human Gross Anatomy(4) • MMI 188: Human Immunology (3) • NPB 101: Systemic Physiology (5) • NPB 107: Signaling Health/Disease • NPB 123: Comparative Vertebrate Organology (4) • There are a vast number of career options for GDB graduates interested in human health including: • Medicine • Nursing • Dentistry • Pharmacy The Global Disease Biology major at UC Davis emphasizes an interdisciplinary approach to understanding the connection between human, animal and environmental health. With this approach, you’ll gain a deep understanding the nature of diseases, as well as the biological, physical and social factors that lead to their spread. The major allows for a unique academic experience, tailored to your career aspirations, through the use of 25 units of classes you choose in conjunction with a faculty mentor. In addition to this, a senior project allows for you to develop hands-on career experience before graduating from UC Davis.
