U.S. News & World Report Best Colleges - Most Innovative 2025

The Track in Integrated Biomedical Sciences has been designed to be available for students in the Burnett School of Biomedical Science who are successful in matriculating through the majority of one of our rigorous degree programs (Molecular Microbiology, Molecular and Cellular Biology, Biotechnology or Biomedical Science), but are unable to maintain the target GPA of 3.0. This degree program is also being developed as an alternative to students moving into the General Studies degree or similar completion degrees that are not STEM degree programs. We still maintain our Progress policy for all students, including this special track, in order to maintain high academic standards in the College of Medicine.

Degree Requirements

  • Students who change degree programs and select this major must adopt the most current catalog.
  • Students should complete the General Education Program before transferring within the Florida College System or State University System.
  • Grades below "C" in Common Program Prerequisites, Core Requirements and Restricted Electives are not accepted.
  • Students in undergraduate majors within the College of Medicine are expected to consistently make good progress towards their degrees. Therefore, the COM/BSBS Progress Policy mandates that undergraduate students meet the requirements of the policy. Below are the specific requirements of the Progress Policy:
    • Students who earned 3 low grades (C-, D, F, NC, U) will be placed on a probationary status. Students who earn 5 or more low grades (C-, D, F, NC, U) will be excluded from all COM majors.
    • Students with 2 unsuccessful attempts of the same UCF course will be placed on a probationary status. Students with 3 unsuccessful attempts of the same UCF course will be excluded from all COM majors.
    • UCF courses and courses taken transiently will be included in Progress Policy reviews
  • Students should consult with a BSBS academic success coach at least one time each semester.

While many students discover that they have interests in varied disciplines at the University of Central Florida, they are not permitted to pursue two majors within the College of Medicine. College of Medicine students may declare a major and a minor within the college or pursue a second major or minor in another academic college at UCF. Students are encouraged to meet with an academic success coach to discuss these opportunities.
