Applied Science

Undergraduate Program

Bioengineering

In November 2025, the William & May Board of Visitors approved a Bachelors of Science and a Bachelors of Arts in Bioengineering for the Applied Science Department. These programs are pending approval by the State Council of Higher Education for Virginia (SCHEV). 

Applied Science Minor

Many courses are suitable for undergraduate students of physics, mathematics, chemistry, computer science and biology. While these courses may be taken as electives, a minor in Applied Science is offered with two tracks: Materials Science or Bioengineering. Required credits: 18 hours

Core requirements: Students must take 6 courses (18 credits), which include 3 credits in research.

Other Undergraduate Tracks

  • EPAD (Engineering Physics and Applied Design), a cross-disciplinary track between the Applied Science and the Physics Departments.
  • CAMS (Computational & Applied Mathematics & Statistics) program, an interdisciplinary program between Applied Science, Biology, Economics and Mathematics. Both the CAMS Mathematical Biology major and minor include several Applied Science courses.
