The biological sciences are a diverse collection of scientific disciplines that interact and intermingle in tremendously complex and interesting ways. To provide the maximum potential for students to explore this vast area of science, the Department of Biological Sciences offers a flexible major that allows students to select coursework to fit their individual interests and career aspirations. Before declaring an area of concentration, students develop their course plan in consultation with one or more faculty advisors. Our Learning Objectives for Undergraduates: Acquire a foundation in biology in order to understand and evaluate a broad spectrum of biological information; for example, information presented in the media and relevant to public policy decisions. Develop an in-depth understanding within a biological area of concentration, designed in consultation with faculty to meet the studentâ€™s educational and career goals. Such depth will allow students to understand and critically evaluate current scientific literature in one or more areas of biology. Understand research methods and approaches currently used in the life sciences through coursework and through an independent research project under the supervision of a Dartmouth faculty member. Develop critical thinking and problem solving skills. Develop written and oral communication skills, allowing for accurate communication of biology information to scientists and non-scientists.
