The Biology Department curriculum is designed
to enable students to understand scientific inquiry and to introduce
them to the major areas of biological science. Objectives of the
department are:
- to increase knowledge and appreciation of
biological systems from the cell to the ecosystem,
- to create awareness
and
understanding of the role of the biological sciences in
social and economic affairs,
- to emphasize the importance of interdisciplinary
science proficiency and experiences,
- to develop critical
and independent thinking skills, and
- to provide the biological
background
necessary
for entrance into a career or into graduate or professional
school.
Qualified students may serve as departmental
laboratory and teaching
assistants, and may engage in faculty-directed research
and independent study opportunities.
