Bachelor of Science - Biology

The Bachelor of Science in Biology are designed to ready students for a variety of professions in education, biomedical research, careers in business, nonprofit agencies and government, and for graduate programs in science, health professions or medical school.

As scientists learn more and more about the natural world, the field of biology continues to expand. The study of life itself, biology offers its students a world of options in terms of both academic focus and career choice. Some may choose to pursue careers in healthcare, for which a strong biology foundation is essential; others may pursue research and work in higher education; and others still may choose to pursue careers in government, military or agencies that help shape policies and practices that impact and protect life.

The Bachelor of Science is the traditional Biology degree for students who intend to apply to professional, health professions and graduate schools. Courses in immunology, virology, medical microbiology and bioethics help ensure they are well prepared.
