生物学是对所有生物的研究，包括微观细菌和病毒，植物和动物及其与环境的关系。生物学专业研究细胞的结构和功能，动植物的器官系统和组织，生态学（生物与环境之间的关系），动物行为，遗传学/基因组学和进化。他们学习生理，行为，遗传和遗传，水生系统，细菌等微观生物，以及从田野研究到生物技术等各个领域的技术。该专业为理解基础生物学奠定了坚实的基础。它还提供了机会来选择与特定职业目标相关的生命科学领域的重点领域（例如：生物生态学，细胞和分子生物学，生物医学专业，水生生物学，海洋生物学，用于农业生物技术的植物分子生物学和生
Biology is the study of all living thingsincluding microscopic bacteria and viruses, plants, and animals, and their relationship to their environments. Biology majors study the structure and function of cells, organ systems and tissues of animals and plants, ecology (the relationship between living things and their environment), animal behavior, genetics/genomics and evolution. They learn about physiology, behavior, genetics and heredity, aquatic systems, microscopic organisms such as bacteria, and techniques for diverse areas ranging from field research to biotechnology. This major provides a solid foundation of understanding the basic biological sciences. It also offers an opportunity to choose an area of emphasis within life sciences that relates to particular career goals (for example: the ecology of organisms, cell and molecular biology, biomedical professions, aquatic biology, marine biology, plant molecular biology for agricultural biotechnology and bioenergy, evolutionary biology, etc.).
