B.S. Degree in Biology
The Biology Department offers a Bachelor's of Science in Biology, with a wide array of available concentrations. Biology is the study of living organisms at all levels, ranging from investigations into molecular structure and processes to studies of complex interactions among different organisms. A biology degree provides students with general courses needed to understand the basic concepts and principles on which these disciplines are based, as well as advanced coursework in seven concentrations:
Botany Concentration
Cellular and Molecular Biology Concentration
Environmental Biology Concentration
Health Sciences Concentration
Marine Biology Concentration
Microbiology Concentration
Zoology Concentration
B.S. Degree in Wildlife and Fisheries Science
The Biology Department also offers a Bachelor's of Science in Wildlife and Fisheries Science. In addition to a strong basis in Biology, students pursuing a Wildlife and Fisheries degree study animal populations such as fish, birds, reptiles, amphibians, and mammals, as well as the ecological principles essential to maintaining and conserving those populations.
Undergraduate students can choose among three concentrations:
Conservation Biology Concentration
