Biology - BIOL
The Biology program emphasizes concepts of biology including the diversity of life generated by evolution, how structure and function relate, and how genetic information flows. The program satisfies general education requirements and also prepares students for transfer to bachelor’s degree programs in several biological fi elds including molecular biology, botany, ecology, zoology, allied health, and medicine. Courses in the biological sciences aid in developing critical thinking skills that are applicable to nearly every discipline, provide an inquiry-based framework to use appropriate tools to solve biological questions, and may also incorporate undergraduate research using well-equipped labs to provide training in essential biological techniques.
