Biology is the study of plants, animals, and the diversity of life in an evolutionary context. Students will gain insight into how organisms interact, how genes are inherited, how creatures evolve, and much more.

Students have the freedom to study Biology in a way that suits their career aspirations.

This program also offers 4 areas of concentration that will allow students to further study a particular area of interest including:
