Biology surrounds us, sustains us, is us. Biology is the study of life from the molecular to a global perspective. It is the science that studies living organisms, including their structure, function, growth, origin, evolution, and distribution. As a graduate of the two-year Associate of Science Degree in Biology program, the students will have a well-rounded education and they will be ready to meet new challenges in employment or further education. Associate Degree programs offer Co-op or Internship options. These options allow them to gain practical work experience, which may be paid or unpaid, through either a four-month internship or two co-op work terms, available after eight courses of academic study.
