Bachelor of Science in Biology

Clarkson University

Biology is the study of life - from the simplest, one-celled organism to complex ecosystems. But that simple definition only hints at where the field can lead you. With a bachelor's degree in biology from Clarkson, you could pursue a career in healthcare, develop new drugs, protect vulnerable habitats, go on to teach or continue your education in graduate school. When you study the sciences at Clarkson, doing and learning go hand in hand. You'll focus on the fundamental concepts of the field, building a foundation in health and biomedical science (human and animal), biotechnology and environmental science. Through it all, you'll put the concepts you learn to work, both in the lab and Clarkson's rich natural surroundings. Those are research opportunities you'd typically find at a large university. The best part: we combine them with the small classes and personal attention from faculty that you find at a small college.
