 The courses STA 4210-11 must be taken in

after STA 4210-11. It is recommended that STA

better, within two attempts (including with-
drawals) in every required core course and in
every course counted toward the 12-hour elec-

to satisfy the core requirements will be used to
compute a core GPA that must exceed 2.0. In
addition, the student must maintain an overall
GPA of at least 2.0 in all attempts to satisfy the
core and elective requirements.
 No undergraduate statistics majors may take
any statistics course at the 3000-level or below

 Of the 42 credits that are required for the
bachelor's degree, at least 18 credits must have
been earned with a grade of C or better while

Florida. At least 12 of the 15 STA credits in the
core requirement must be included in this
18-hour requirement.

 other electives coming from the physical, bio-
 logical or agricultural sciences.

MINOR IN STATISTICS
 A minimum 15 hours (5 courses) of
4000-level statistics courses are required for a
minor in statistics. Of these, no more than 3
hours may be transfer credits. All statistics
minors must complete STA 4210 and STA 4211.
Each statistics minor whose major requires the
completion of MAC 2311-13 is required to com-
plete STA 4321-22. In addition, all students
minoring in statistics are required to complete
all 4000-level statistics courses with a grade of C
or higher, take no courses counting toward the
minor on an S/U basis and count no individual
study courses toward the minor.


Wildlife Ecology and Conservation

 The department offers a major in wildlife
ecology and conservation with four areas of
specialization: wildlife resources; wildlife con-
servation; preprofessional; and biology educa-
tion. The department also co-administers a
major in natural resource conservation with the
School of Forest Resources and Conservation.
Refer to the School of Forest Resources and
Conservation section in this catalog for further
information.

WILDLIFE RESOURCES SPECIALIZATION
 The wildlife resources specialization is the
main option of the wildlife ecology and conser-
vation major. Graduates qualify for certification
as associate wildlife biologists by The Wildlife
Society and for entry-level professional employ-
ment or graduate education. The objective of
the wildlife resources specialization is to edu-
cate students in the biological, social, physical
and management sciences enabling them to
excel at both scientific and human dimensions
of managing wildlife and related natural
resources.


Critical Tracking Criteria:
 Critical tracking courses are bolded. A stu-
dent should complete the bolded courses in
the semester indicated with a 2.5 GPA to stay
"on track" for this major.
