Biology, the study of life, is currently in its most exciting era. Unique insights of new scientific pioneers fueled by modern research techniques are sparking an explosion of biological information. From these fragments emerge a picture of life revealing fascinating connections between molecules, cells, organisms, ecological systems, and evolution. Biologists explore these fundamental components and their connections to build a unified understanding of life. The College of Natural Science and Computational Sciences offers two pathways, or concentrations, for a major program of study leading to a Bachelor of Science degree in Biology. The first concentration is the General Biology program of study, which provides a broad, yet integrated curriculum across the breath of fields within the biological sciences. The General Biology curriculum is scientifically rigorous yet flexible, offering student’s choices and opportunities for pursuing their own areas of interest. The General Biology program provides the background and preparation for a variety of biological careers or further studies, including the areas of wildlife biology, conservation, ecology, molecular biology, zoology, botany and physiology. The second concentration is the Human and Health Sciences program of study. PROGRAM OBJECTIVES: Apply the fundamental knowledge, principles, processes, and systems in the natural sciences to solve biological problems. Integrate advanced concepts across the breadth of biology subject areas, including cellular, molecular, and organismal biology, ecology, evolution, and the diversity of life. Conduct, observational and experimental studies in biology, with appropriate experimental design and application of mathematical, statistical and computational techniques. Find, read, and evaluate published biological research from a variety of sources. Communicate scientific ideas effectively in written and oral formats with effective presentation techniques. Exhibit professionalism and a commitment to uphold scientific ethics.
