- Description
- The general biology major provides students with a strong background in the biological sciences, from molecules to organisms to ecological relationships. Advanced courses build upon information learned in the foundational courses and allow students to pursue their own areas of interest. The general major is a good choice for students interested in Botany, Wildlife Biology, Conservation Biology, Marine Biology, and Secondary Education. A major in traditional Biology prepares students to pursue graduate degrees or to work in a variety of settings.
