Students pursuing a Bachelor of Science or Bachelor of Arts degree may do so using informal advisement tracks in Molecular/Cellular Biology, Environmental Science, pre-Medicine, pre-Dentistry, pre-Veterinary Medicine, or General Biology.? Additionally, we offer a minor in Geology as well as transferable coursework into a Geology major.

Research is an important part of the biology curriculum, and at USC Aiken, biology majors work with a chosen faculty member to develop and carry out independent laboratory projects in a variety of areas. These projects are often long-term, multi-semester experiences that enhance and extend classroom learning, as well as provide a strong background in applied biological techniques. Many of our majors are co-authors on peer-reviewed papers and give presentations at local, state, and regional conferences.
