生物科学理学学士-微生物学

生物学是对生命的研究。地球上生活着各种各样的生物，因此，了解所有生物共有的基本生物过程对于理解世界至关重要。近几十年来，在理解重要的生物过程方面取得了长足的进步，特别是在分子，细胞和生态系统水平上。对生物系统的理解部分取决于物理学和化学原理，因此，物理科学的扎实背景在生物学研究中也很重要。对于许多人来说，生物学的本科专业（理学学士学位）是生命科学研究生学习的基础。生命科学学院的毕业生已继续深造，并从事大学或大学教学，基础和应用研究以及公共卫生等职业。许多人进入了医学，兽医学和牙科专业课程。其他毕业生直接进
Biology is the study of life. The earth is filled with an enormous variety of living organisms, therefore, an understanding of the basic biological processes common to all organisms is essential to understanding the world. In recent decades, great strides have been made in understanding important biological processes, particularly those at the molecular, cellular, and ecosystem levels. An understanding of biological systems depends, in part, on the principles of physics and chemistry, thus a firm background in the physical sciences is also important in the study of biology. For many, an undergraduate major in biology (Bachelor of Science (B.S. Degree)) serves as a basis for postgraduate study in the life sciences. School of Life Sciences graduates have gone on to advanced graduate study, leading to careers in college or university teaching, basic and applied research, and public health. Many have entered professional programs in medicine, veterinary medicine, and dentistry. Other graduates have gone directly into secondary (high school) science teaching, the biomedical industry, independent laboratory research, natural resources management, or environmental education.<br><br>In addition to the outcomes listed above, concentration specific outcomes are as follows: Explain the diversity and similarity of microbes, including their physiology, mechanisms of pathogenesis and host defenses, and unique ecology.
