The chart below shows how modules can be combined in the three different types of degrees offered: Honors Bachelor Degree, Bachelor Degree (4 yr), Bachelor Degree (3 yr). For instance, if you were planning to complete a 4-year Honors Bachelor Degree, you could do an Honors Specialization in Biology combined with a minor in a different Science or even a non-Science (Philosophy, for example). A very popular choice is an Honors Bachelor degree based on the double major – two different Major modules, either both in Science or one in Science plus a non-Science. At Western, there are literally thousands of possible combinations of modules.<br><br>The Department of Biology currently offers modules of study in Animal Behaviour, Biodiversity and Conservation, Biology, Ecosystem Health, Genetics, and Genetics and Biochemistry.<br><br>Regardless of the module, the teaching faculty of the Department of Biology have defined twelve learning outcomes that all students should acquire prior to their graduation. Besides gaining an understanding of a wide range of biological concepts, the courses in the curriculum will help to develop your writing and oral communication skills as well as give you opportunities for independent research.
