As a Bachelor of Arts (BA) or a Bachelor Science (BS) in Biological Sciences major, you’ll gain the knowledge and skills you need to succeed in a wide range of careers in science, research, education, health and other fields. Inside and outside the classroom, you’ll learn to think independently and work collaboratively. Here, most faculty members direct their own research programs, giving you an opportunity to work on multiple research projects. Biological Sciences majors are encouraged to attend seminars and complete internships. If you’re interested in pursuing a career in education, the Department of Biological Sciences also partners with the College of Education to award teaching degrees. We also offer a combined bachelor’s and master’s degree program in Biological Sciences as well as a combined bachelor’s and master’s in Biological Sciences and Secondary Education Biological Sciences. Both of these combined degree programs allow you to complete a bachelor’s degree and a graduate degree in as few as five years.
