The Bachelor of Science in biology is ideal for students aiming to pursue careers as professional biologists or high school biology teachers, enter specific healthcare-related fields, or continue their education in medical, dental, or graduate programs at the master's or doctoral level. This degree offers two distinct pathways. The general biology track lets students select electives beyond the core curriculum to prepare for specialized fields like medicine, dentistry, veterinary studies, or advanced graduate research. Those pursuing healthcare careers should consult the Health Professions Advisor for guidance on relevant elective courses. Students focused on genomics, environmental biology, or other specialized areas should seek advice from their biology advisor for recommended coursework. The forensic science track equips students with essential training for careers in biological forensics, DNA analysis, or law enforcement laboratory work.
