营养科学利用包括生物学在内的多个学科来理解食物，营养素和人类健康之间的关系。人类营养学专业提供生物学课程，涉及必需和非必需营养素的性质和生化功能，营养素需求，营养素在基因表达中的作用以及饮食在慢性病风险和现有疾病治疗中的作用疾病状态。鼓励该浓度的学生完成一系列不同的高级课程，从而对当前的营养需求和功能知识以及如何利用这些知识提供一个观点。除了营养素的结构和功能的核心课程外，课程要求没有特别说明。教师顾问会与个别学生一起制定适合学生的兴趣的课程。作为课程的一部分，鼓励学生通过课程学习或研究获得实验室经验。营
The concentration in Neurobiology and Behavior covers a broad range of topics, all concerned in some way with how animals (including humans) behave and what neural mechanisms underlie their behavior. Students are required to take the two introductory courses, one in behavior (fall) and one in neuroscience (spring), in any order. After taking these courses, each student has a choice of many different upper-level courses for further exploration of areas of special interest, including social evolution, behavioral neurobiology, animal communication, animal cognition, computational and systems neuroscience, neuropharmacology, chemical ecology, motor systems, brain evolution, motivation, and cell and molecular neuroscience. Neurobiology and behavior is a synthesis of many disciplines, including physiology, anatomy, ecology, evolution, genetics, biochemistry, physics and mathematics. The course requirements beyond the required two-course introductory sequence are left unspecified, so that courses may be selected from a wide range of possibilities, depending on your interests. These include one upper-level neurobiology and behavior course, 3000 level or above of at least 3 credits plus one or two other BIONB courses from the wide variety of course offerings. Credit for classes outside of the BIONB offerings is permitted but, it is at the discretion of the faculty advisor and it should reflect coursework that is cross-disciplinary with the concentration. Students are encouraged to get hands-on experience in a research lab or the field, and/or take one of the advanced laboratory courses or topic seminars during their senior year. Faculty advisers help students plan their courses of study in light of their interests and goals.
