生物学理学学士

旨在获得生物学科学学士学位的课程旨在为学生准备生物科学领域的专业职业。该课程的毕业生为在工业或研究机构中的职位做好了充分的准备。但是，经验表明，许多毕业生选择在研究生院继续学业，以便在生物化学，微生物学，遗传学，生物物理学，细胞生物学或生理学等领域获得博士学位，然后在其中之一进行研究或教学这些区域。对于希望继续攻读医学博士学位的学生来说，本科课程也是一个很好的准备，特别是如果他们的职业计划包括涉及人类疾病的实验室研究时。
The curriculum leading to the Bachelor of Science in Biology is designed to prepare students for a professional career in the area of the biological sciences. Graduates of this program are well prepared for positions in industrial or research institutes. However, experience has shown that many graduates choose to continue their education at a graduate school in order to obtain a PhD in an area such as biochemistry, microbiology, genetics, biophysics, cell biology, or physiology, followed by research or teaching in one of those areas. The undergraduate curriculum is also excellent preparation for students who wish to continue their education toward an MD, particularly if their career plans include laboratory investigations bearing on human disease. Students are encouraged to use their elective subjects for more advanced subjects in their field and for additional study in basic and advanced subjects offered in various departments.
