Program Description

The Department of Biological Sciences offers two undergraduate degrees- B.S. in Biology and B.S. in Marine Biology. Our Bachelor of Science degree in Biology has three different tracks or concentrations-pre-health, microbiology and basic. The pre-health curriculum is designed for students that wish to enter a health professions career and is designed to maximize prerequisites for entry into professional schools. The microbiology curriculum is designed to prepare students for graduate school and may also serve as a pipeline for our PhD program in microbiology. The basic biology curriculum is designed for any biology major and allows for students to choose major electives in order for them to tailor their curriculum to whichever career path they choose. Our Bachelor of Science in Marine Biology caters to students that are interested in more environmental careers with a focus on marine life.
