Bachelor of Arts/Bachelor of Science - Biological Sciences

Biological Sciences is a dynamic, hands-on program that prepares students for a number of health-related professions in medicine, dentistry, veterinary medicine, optometry, pharmacy, physical therapy, nursing, and physician’s assistant roles, as well as graduate and teacher credential programs, and entry-level careers in government and private organizations.

Through participation in leading-edge research projects, students will gain invaluable experience in research methodology, problem solving and intellectual discovery. The program also provides career-relevant internships that are designed to get students out of the classroom and into a field of interest. Short and long-term study abroad opportunities are also available in this integrated curriculum.

Students with a degree in Biological Science are prepared for a wide range of careers, including environmental work, biotechnology, and secondary school teaching. This degree is also important for students pursuing further training in medical, pharmacy and graduate school.
