生物学部门认为，对生物系统的基本了解是我们日益发展的技术社会的基本技能。在整个课程中都强调了生物学研究和实验的重要性，其中包括通过高级实验室和校内外指导研究来高度重视研究经验。生物系为本科学习提供了一系列机会。作为生物学专业，学生可以获得生物学或生物化学理学学士学位或生物学文学学士学位。生物学专业的学生也可以选择专注于生物信息学，它将生物学，数学和计算机科学的课程结合在一起。对于有兴趣从事健康职业的学生，​​教育部与健康前办公室一起制定学习计划，并为规划研究生课程和与健康相关的职业提供指导。参与本科研究的
The Biology department considers a basic understanding of biological systems to be an essential skill in our increasingly technological society. The importance of research and experimentation in biology is stressed throughout the curriculum, which includes a strong focus on research experience through advanced labs and guided research on and off campus. The Biology Department offers a range of opportunities for undergraduate study. As a Biology major, students can obtain a Bachelor of Science in Biology or Biochemistry or a Bachelor of Arts in Biology. Biology majors may also choose to concentrate in Bioinformatics, which combines coursework in Biology, Mathematics, and Computer Science. For students interested in pursuing a health career, the department works with the Pre-Health office to create a plan of study and offer guidance in planning for graduate school programs and health-related careers. Boston College students involved in undergraduate research may apply to the Graduate Program during their Junior year, for entry into a 5-year BSMS Program.
