Integrated Health Studies Majors: For all students who are majoring in Integrated Health Studies (IHS), you may request overrides for BIOS courses by emailing your IHS advisor, Trisha Garcia (tmgarcia@uic.edu). If you have met the pre-requisites for the course, Trisha will provide you an override and you will be able to register when your time ticket opens. Be sure to include your name and UIN in your email.
