Biology explores living organisms through observation and analysis of life's diversity. Its fundamental principles rest on evolutionary concepts like natural selection and species formation. This field addresses critical issues including environmental preservation, population growth, pollution, healthcare, and illnesses.
Biology graduates can pursue careers in education, government research (focusing on environmental challenges, resource management, wildlife conservation, and pest control), corporate sectors (biological supply firms, pharmaceutical companies, food production, and biotech), as well as medical and dental fields involving physiological or microbiological studies.
The Biology undergraduate advisor assists with course selection and program planning. Authentic biological education requires hands-on work with actual specimens. Most Biology lab courses involve activities such as: gathering and preserving field samples, examining preserved or humanely treated specimens, and conducting measurements on lab-maintained organisms following Canadian Council of Animal Care guidelines. Completing Biology Specialists or Majors necessitates participation in these activities, making these programs unsuitable for students uncomfortable with such work. Non-Biology students seeking courses with limited organism interaction should consult the Biology Undergraduate Advisor.
