Purpose
The Biology degree provides students with current understanding of modern biology. A comprehensive course of study encompassing molecular, cellular, organismal, and ecological levels of organization will train students to understand the biological world in its broadest sense. Students in this major will gain in-depth knowledge of the diversity of life, emphasizing whole organism biology in ecological and evolutionary contexts. Elective flexibility allows students to emphasize botanical or zoological fields, or to create a combined program of study. Several undergraduate research opportunities are available in this major including internships, museum collections curation, bioinventory and data-basing activities, conservation projects, applied molecular genetics, and field and laboratory research in ecology, conservation biology, or evolutionary biology. Students that complete this program typically enter into excellent graduate programs, top professional schools (including medicine, dentistry, podiatry, physical therapy, and veterinary programs), or secure employment in other biology-related disciplines.

Expected Learning Outcomes
1. Students will demonstrate a fundamental knowledge of biology.
2. Students will develop the discovery skills and tools used by biologists.
3. Students will use biological knowledge to enhance their personal lives.
4. Students having gained biological skills and knowledge can secure employment or advance toward higher education in biology-related disciplines.
