在研究改善健康和治疗疾病的方法时，该双学位将使您对人类，植物和动物生物学有深刻的了解。生物医学科学课程可让您了解人体的功能，以及人体对各种疾病，运动​​，饮食，内在干扰和环境影响的反应。生物技术部分涵盖植物，动物和微生物，以及如何在实际应用中使用生物过程。您将学习如何将分子生物学和遗传学的技术应用于诸如诊断引起癌症的基因，使农作物和牲畜不易患疾病以及使食品更安全等问题。
Gain insight into human and animal biology as you explore ways to improve health and treat disease. You will graduate with majors in microbiology, cell and molecular biology and an optional major of biochemistry. Biomedical science courses allow you to understand how the human body functions, and the responses of the body to various diseases, exercise, diet, internal disturbances, and environmental influences. You'll learn how techniques in molecular biology and genetics are applied to diagnosing genes that cause cancer, making crops and livestock less vulnerable to disease, and making food safer. You'll complete studies in cell biology, physiology, microbiology and molecular biology including proteomics. You can also choose to study anatomy, neuroscience, cardiovascular biology, industrial microbiology and applied biochemistry.
