Biology offers a comprehensive understanding of living organisms, covering their structure, functions, development, origins, evolutionary processes, and geographical spread. Students pursuing biology engage with subjects like biology, chemistry, physics, calculus, and statistics. This adaptable program leverages the expertise and facilities of two UF colleges to equip students for professional achievement.
This focus area readies biology students for entry into medical, dental, optometry, or veterinary programs, while also serving as strong groundwork for advanced academic pursuits.
The Biology program builds core knowledge about animals, plants, and microbes. The College of Agricultural and Life Sciences provides four specialized tracks designed for preprofessional students, those aiming for graduate work in biology or specific fields like bioinformatics, ecology, genetics, and molecular biology, as well as individuals pursuing careers in biotechnology, education, natural resource conservation, or environmental and biotech law.
