The BS in Biological Sciences with a concentration in Ecology & Evolution teaches students to unravel the mysteries of how animals, plants, and microbes function, how they interact, and how they evolve in a changing world. The ecology and evolution concentration is unique in its broad and interdisciplinary approach.The BS in Biological Sciences prepares students for hands-on, applied, or basic work in the life sciences. This degree is extremely versatile, and electives can be chosen to emphasize desired specializations, such as attending graduate school to study biology, experiment with materials as a research scientist or biochemist, or advance to a medical, dental, or veterinary program. Areas covered by this broad program include molecular biology, computational biology, cell biology, organismal biology, and ecology and evolution. The program emphasizes how systems are integrated across scales in living organisms, from bacteria to fungi, animals to plants.
