About Associate of Science - Biology
Biologists take very diverse career paths. Some enter health fields like medicine, dentistry, nursing, physical therapy, and pharmacy. Others enter into
research in environmental and conservation areas. Training in biology can also lead to careers in biotechnology and other fields of technology. Because humans ourselves are life forms, interacting with and dependent on other life forms, it is important for any educated person to have an understanding
of the basics of biology.
Upon completion of this program a student will be able to:
- Students demonstrate skills necessary to operate equipment used in biological disciplines, such as compound and dissecting microscopes, analytical balances, sphygmomanometers, and spectroscopes.
- Students understand and discuss different life forms based on their general knowledge of biological diversity and taxonomic relationships.
- Students apply an understanding of the scientific method to critical analyses of scientific and nonscientific explanations and hypotheses.
- Students are able to differentiate scientific hypotheses, derived through the scientific method, from explanations generated through nonscientific methods.
- Students are able to explain verbally or in writing, differences between 2 domains and differences between the different subgroups within the prokaryotes and eukaryotes.
