BSc (Honours) in Biology and Mathematics [Specialization] in Kingston Canada | Queen's University

Exploring how drug-resistant diseases develop requires insights from genetics, genomics, epidemiology, and population ecology. These interdisciplinary fields blend Biology and Mathematics, illustrating the increasing importance of quantitative skills in academia, healthcare, and industry. The Biology and Mathematics SSP integrates courses from both disciplines with specialized "BioMath" classes, offering a unique educational opportunity in this evolving area.


We aim to cultivate graduates who are curious, self-directed, analytical, and capable of meaningful societal contributions. Our Department emphasizes seamless integration across all biological scales, ensuring our research and teaching reflect a holistic view of life's patterns and processes—from molecules to entire ecosystems. The undergraduate Biology program delivers a rigorous, balanced education designed to instill lifelong appreciation and application of biological concepts. Ultimately, we teach students to 'think scientifically'—using evidence-based approaches to interpret phenomena and address challenges. This essential skill enhances decision-making abilities, benefiting not just future research scientists but also graduates pursuing diverse paths in education, healthcare, biotechnology, business, law, and other fields.
