Biology is the core life science program. The Department of Biology provides a comprehensive, interdisciplinary education offering courses aimed at breadth and depth of study including cellular and molecular biology, biotechnology, biomedical sciences, genetics, physiology, organismal biology, animal behavior, plant biology and physiology, ecology, and evolution. The curriculum emphasizes the process of science through inquiry-based experiential learning in laboratory and field courses, faculty-mentored research, and co-curricular opportunities.

Students connect their experiences and gain global perspectives through participation in international research projects, attendance at regional and national conferences, and field work both domestic and abroad.
