The goal of the Biology Department is to engender a comprehensive knowledge of and appreciation for the many dimensions of the biological sciences. We emphasize the close relationship of biology to other scientific disciplines, such as mathematics, chemistry and physics, and also stress the importance of biology in society and within the historical liberal arts tradition.
Those who concentrate in biology and related areas choose a variety of professional and career goals including those of ecologist, medical doctor, biotechnologist, veterinarian, laboratory research technician, teacher, clinical laboratory scientist, graduate student, dentist, physical therapist, environmentalist and many others. Special affiliations/agreements exist between Albright College and such institutions as Penn State (Early Assurance Program with Hershey Medical School), Duke University (cooperative forestry, environmental studies) and regional schools of clinical laboratory science (medical technology).
