I really enjoyed the BCS department. The department is pretty small -- only about 30-40 majors per year -- so classes are mostly small, and students have a lot of access to faculty members. The curriculum is very flexible, so students are free to take classes in areas of the department they find interesting. Personally, I'm the cellular/molecular neuro type, so I chose to take classes on topics like neural plasticity and neurochemistry. I started doing research the summer after my freshman year. I thought the department gave me a lot of access to top-notch professors and freedom to choose the types of classes that interested me.
