Areas of Emphasis
Biology B.S. Areas of Emphasis
Cellular and Molecular Biology
A biology degree with an emphasis in cellular and molecular biology provides you
with all the preparation necessary for the health professions, pharmacy and pharmacology,
and graduate school in cellular or molecular biology, virology, genetics, immunology
and a variety of related fields. You will first take two introductory
courses to learn about the processes within cells and the mechanisms for communication
between cells. You will then take a further concentration of courses in
biology that are related to cellular and molecular biology.
Ecology, Ecosystems and Global Change
