The Biology bachelor's degree program provides a strong background of critical thinking skills and knowledge needed for further study in professional and graduate schools and for careers in biological science. The study of biology enables students to gain an understanding of the principles that govern life from the basic biochemistry of living cells to that of complex ecosystems. This understanding helps students identify and address the biological problems associated with human beings and their environments.

Upon completion of the program, graduates are expected to:

• Understand and apply the fundamental biological concepts of evolution, structure and function, information exchange and storage, and transformation of energy and matter to explain biological systems from molecules to communities.
• Communicate scientific information using oral and written arguments and visual presentation.
• Identify, evaluate and analyze scientific information.
• Apply the scientific method and critical thinking skills to address scientific questions.
• Apply mathematical and computational skills and interdisciplinary concepts and knowledge to interpret biological phenomena.
• Recognize ethical concerns pertaining to biological science and apply ethical practice in the scientific process.
• Evaluate the influence that biological science has on society, including the historical context of major findings in modern biology.

Upon completion of the Biomedical Science specialization, graduates are expected to:

• Apply fundamental concepts of microbiology, biochemistry and immunology to explain the cellular and molecular bases of host-microbial interactions.
• Apply fundamental concepts of human anatomy, human physiology, and histology to problem solve clinical situations.

Upon completion of the Environmental Studies specialization, graduates are expected to:

• Apply the core concepts and methods from economics, social, political and biological sciences to identify and address environmental problems.
