Biology, B.S.
Biology is the scientific study of life: the diversity and organization of organisms, from single-celled bacteria to multi-cellular plants and animals, including humans. The multidisciplinary approach is built upon a strong foundation in the biological sciences combined with coursework in chemistry and physics. The Biology major provides flexibility in upper-level courses for students to design a program to suit their career goals and interests.
