Students who are seeking to earn the B.S./M.S. in Cardiovascular Sciences spend their first three years at Geneva. During that time the student completes 94 semester hours including all general requirements for the B.S. degree including at least 27 hours of biology, eight hours of organic chemistry, and eight hours of physics. Cardiovascular students take all the required courses for the biology major except the six hours of electives and BIO 420 (for more information on the biology major refer to the College Catalog). In their senior year (year 04) and year 05 students take the following courses at the IHVI campus in Falls Church, VA:
