About Associate of Science - Biology

Program Description

Selkirk College offers a great start to an undergraduate degree in biology. Complete the first two years in a learner-centered environment! If biology isn’t a student's passion, but they need it for another program or degree that they are interested in, Selkirk offers a variety of biology courses that are relevant for non-biology majors as well.

Who Should Study Biology?
Biology is the science of life, so it is relevant to everyone! If one likes biology, one is curious about living creatures. Students might be interested in learning about the complex structure of a bacterium, an insect, a plant or maybe students are interested in human health. A student might also like exploring how intricate genetic, biochemical and physiological processes work. Or, perhaps they enjoy learning how organisms interact with their environment and how ecosystems function.

At the end of a biology degree, students will acquire or be able to:
  • Think critically, problem solve and use scientific reasoning skills
  • Apply the scientific method in experimental design, experimentation and analysis
  • Perform common laboratory techniques
  • Correlate structure with function
  • Understand the complexity of living systems
  • Retrieve, assess, analyze and integrate information
  • Communicate both orally and in writing
  • Work independently and with others
