Biology B.S. ~ Overview

This modern, broadly-based program combines theoretical knowledge and practical skills to meet the needs of students with a wide range of biology interests and academic/career goals.

A biology degree opens the door to hundreds of careers. Some require additional education or training beyond the bachelor's level (for example, becoming a medical doctor or biology professor), but many do not.

By coupling a solid foundation in fundamental biology concepts and ethics with pragmatic field and laboratory skills, technology skills and written/oral communication skills, we prepare students for success in post-graduation employment or advanced graduate/professional school programs in the life and health sciences.
