<p>I'm also considering UCI and UCSB. Important factors are their variety of science courses (non-premed), research opportunities/ internships, study abroad programs, and amount of people who get into prestigious biology grad programs after they graduate. Thanks.</p>
<p>buuuuump. Also my question (premed)</p>
<p>I’d like to know toooo!</p>
<p>i’d like to know too, if anyone does know.</p>
<p>For variety of classes check this: [USC</a> Schedule of Classes: Select a Term](<a href=“http://web-app.usc.edu/soc/]USC”>http://web-app.usc.edu/soc/)
The classes change in the fall and spring so check both, you can also see the size of the classes and general times when you click them.
Check BISC for biology, CHEM for chemistry, EXSC for Kinesiology, GERO for gerontology, and any others that may interest you, its pretty self-explanatory.</p>
<p>As for research, you can take the 490 class for credit or ask a professor to work in their lab.
They also have summer stipends for $3000 if you do research over the summer with a professor.</p>
<p>Here are the Biology study abroad programs: [USC</a> Office of Overseas Studies: Programs: Program Finder: bsci](<a href=“http://www.usc.edu/schools/college/overseas/programs/program_finder/bsci.html]USC”>http://www.usc.edu/schools/college/overseas/programs/program_finder/bsci.html)
