Who is this program for? Students interested in biology must be able to work independently and seek answers to problems that are presented. Biological scientists study living organisms and their relationship to their environment. They research problems dealing with life processes and living organisms. Most specialize in some area of biology, such as zoology (the study of animals) or microbiology (the study of microscopic organisms).
Biotechnology: Biological Sciences Option provides biology and chemistry education focusing on standard laboratory techniques for a science laboratory. The curriculum provides a strong foundation in mathematics and science to prepare students for upper-division course work. The program is articulated with the University of Delaware‘s bachelor‘s degrees in Biotechnology and Biological Sciences.

Why major in Biology/Pre-Medicine? Biology is the primary life science from which students can enter specific fields of study as diverse as molecular biology, forestry, pathophysiology, neuroanatomy, and parasitology. Biology also provides the foundation for students who wish to become physicians, dentists, or other such medical professionals. The curriculum is equivalent to the first two years of a baccalaureate program in Biology. Emphasis is placed...
GENERAL INFORMATION Biological Sciences include the study of diverse types of living organisms at all levels of their organization. Specialties include Cellular and Molecular Biology, Botany, Zoology, Microbiology, Genetics, Physiology, Evolutionary Biology and Ecology. Students whose eventual goal is medical, dental or veterinary school usually major in some area of the biological sciences; separate EvCC guides are also available for those programs....
The A.S. degree may be obtained by completion of the Required Program, plus General Education Requirements, plus sufficient electives to meet a 60-unit total.
Upon completion of this program, the student will be able to:
apply acquired knowledge, skills, and abilities toward successful completion of coursework at transfer institutions.
demonstrate knowledge of the language, facts, and concepts that serve as the foundation for working independently...
The major in Biological Sciences is primarily intended for students who plan to transfer to a four-year institution and earn a Bachelor‘s degree. The major in the Biological Sciences prepares students for careers in the health professions, teaching, forestry, agriculture, environmental protection and conservation, wildlife biology, biotechnology, basic research and many other fields.
