Biologia

The Bachelor of Science in Biology program guides students in the study of the structure, function, growth, development, reproduction, origin, evolution, and distribution of living organisms.

Students gain a strong foundation of knowledge in the biological sciences and develop their scientific skills needed to succeed in careers or post-graduate study. Guided by expert faculty, students can choose from a variety of authentic hands-on learning experiences including undergraduate research, service-learning, internships, human dissection, or working with our turtle assurance colony.

Students can also practice leadership skills and engage in extracurricular biology through involvement in our award-winning biological honors society or other registered student clubs. Students in this program select one of three concentrations; Environmental Sciences, General Biology, and Pre-Health Sciences as described further below.
