Pursue your passion for biology

A diverse world, a welcoming community

Do you seek a deeper understanding of living things, from cell nuclei to ecosystems? As a biology student in the College of Liberal Arts & Sciences, you will spend your first year exploring the fascinating and complex world of biology before deciding to major in molecular and cellular biology or integrative biology. Both majors will prepare you for professional school, graduate school, or a competitive job market.

Title
Molecular & Cellular Biology

Body

How do organisms work at molecular, cellular, and systems levels and how do these processes go awry during injury, infections, and genetic diseases? Build a strong foundation in biological sciences, core MCB subjects such as cell communication and gene expression, and expand your knowledge in areas such as cancer cell biology and molecular pharmacology.

Title
Integrative Biology

Body

How do the different components of life interact, from molecules through global cycles? Explore genetics and evolution, anatomy and physiology of plants and animals, ecology and behavior, molecular biology, and much more.
