- Description
- The Biology B.A. program has fewer required courses in biology, mathematics, and physics than the Biology B.S. program. It is intended for those who do not wish to pursue advanced degrees in biology or medicine that require calculus or physics. It is for those who wish to start a career right out of college, for example in the industry, as a lab technician, or sales representative for medical or laboratory supplies, for those who wish to pursue a teaching training program, or for those who wish to combine biology with another concentration, e.g., nursing, business, preparation for physician assistant or with a structured minor. The B.A. in Biology includes 39-41 credit hours in biology and 16 credit hours in the related fields of chemistry and mathematics.
