This makes studying biology an ideal preparation for a wide range of careers. The Department of Biology at the University of Utah offers a wide range of courses involving field, laboratory, lecture, and library experience.

The Student Experience

A number of academic enrichment opportunities are available to students, including independent research projects and internships. You can also participate in Community Engaged Learning, a hands-on, experiential program that allows you complete community service projects and gain academic credit while doing so. If you want to become more involved in your academic experience, consider joining BioSAC, the student advisory committee for the Biology department; or, join the BioScience Undergraduate Research Club, or BSURC, for the chance to meet fellow students and faculty members, network, and learn more about the exciting field of biology.
