Course Information

Biologists study many aspects of how life operates – from the molecular details of cells to how entire ecosystems function.

You’ll examine all aspects of the biological world, preparing you for a successful career in health, research, or teaching.

Learn the fundamentals, then expand your scope

Your first courses will give you a solid understanding of biological systems from the molecular to ecological level. With this foundational knowledge, you’ll be able to explore more advanced subjects, including:

  • Marine biology
  • Genetics
  • Immunology
  • Neuroscience
  • Evolution
  • Ecology
  • Biochemistry
  • Cancer biology
  • Microbiology
  • Molecular biology
  • Developmental biology 
  • Physiology

Take an active approach

We emphasize “doing” science. Throughout your classes, you’ll work side-by-side with your professors in the lab and field to discover key insights about your subjects — gaining invaluable hands-on experience along the way.

Choose between a B.S. or B.A. degree

If you’re considering a career in health or research, a bachelor of science degree is likely the one you’ll wish to pursue, as it provides additional courses that are essential to these professions.

If your goal is to teach — or if you wish to add a minor or second major — a bachelor of arts degree may serve you better.
