This combination of laboratory and classroom activities engages students in the processes of biological inquiry and critical thinking, provides students hands-on experiences with biological principles, and trains students in modern technological methods. Students completing our program are well educated in the practice and knowledge of science and are well prepared to be productive members of society.
Student Learning Objectives
Students who graduate with a Bachelor of Science in Biological Sciences will:
- Use the scientific method to ask testable questions and to design and conduct laboratory, field, or theoretical investigations to address these questions.
- Apply knowledge of the major principles from the fundamental areas of 1) cellular and molecular biology, 2) genetics, 3) physiology, and 4) and ecology and evolution to biological questions.
- Employ mathematical and computational skills to organize, analyze, and evaluate biological data.
- Locate, determine the reliability of, critically evaluate and summarize scientific literature and other sources of biological information
- Communicate biological information in an appropriate written and/or oral format to both scientific and general audiences.
