Biology, an exciting field of science, is the general study of life processes and living organisms.
Students may choose to concentrate in a particular area including biochemistry, botany, cellular biology, developmental biology, environmental biology, ecology, entomology, genetics, microbiology, molecular genetics, paleontology, physiology, systematics, tropical biology or zoology.
Introductory courses are designed to give all majors a common background in several areas of biology and to provide practice in reading and writing technical reports, making observations, analyzing data quantitatively and interpreting data in relation to other available information. These skills help to prepare students for more advanced work.
