Overview

The Biology bachelor of science degree offers a broad education in the life sciences. Graduates are prepared for entry-level jobs with private companies, hospitals, universities, the armed forces and public agencies at every level. It also lays a strong base for further study at the graduate level in biology or allied sciences. Students move from introductory principles and diversity courses into more specialized study, guided by faculty who help them select a concentration that matches their interests. Graduating in this major demands at least a 2.0 average, calculated across all courses in the major.
