BA/BS in Biology, General

Marymount University's Bachelor of Arts in Biology lets students study the science of living organisms alongside business, politics or the humanities. Majors explore molecular and cellular activity and lay groundwork in genetics and microbiology, plus chemistry and physics. That grounding prepares graduates for a range of careers or for advanced degrees. Students can further personalize their studies by picking electives from advanced science, politics, business or ethics. The B.A. format suits learners who want to connect biological knowledge to wider questions in society and professional life, rather than following a purely laboratory-focused track. Because the page frames the major as a bridge between science and other disciplines, it can appeal to students who expect to combine laboratory knowledge with interests outside the sciences. Within the university it sits under the College of Sciences and Humanities, and the Apply Now link on the university site is the place to begin an application.
