The B.S. in Biology provides students with the education to be experienced biologists, as well as broad-based scientists. The B.A. in Biology provides students the opportunity to be biologists with the flexibility to add other majors or minors to their programs of study.

Small Classes
With our small class sizes in biology, we foster active learning using the methods of scientists and medical professionals.

"Hands-on" Experience
Biology courses are tailored so you get valuable hands-on experience. Students have participated in such experiences as: taking an inventory of all birds on-campus, dissecting various types of animals, and surveying fields to discover the correlation between woodchucks and kudzu.

Independent research is highly encouraged, and a number of current students and alumni have become published researchers in their field of study.

Expert Faculty
Do you want to learn about genetics from a geneticist? Do you want insight on reptiles and amphibians from an expert?

The biology faculty is also experienced in the field and in the classroom.

What is the job outlook for this major
While there will always be a need for bright, energetic, and educated individuals with a strong understanding of biology, employment opportunities vary depending on the status of local and national economies. Job growth is expected in many areas, biotechnology and molecular biology in particular. Business leaders have begun to create more science and technology jobs. Also, federal government agencies charged with managing natural resources, such as the Interior and Agriculture Departments and the Environmental Protection Agency, are expected to grow.
