Department of Biology
The Department of Biology offers a broad foundation in molecular, organismal, and ecological biology supported by modern teaching and research laboratories. Undergraduates are encouraged to pursue independent research beginning as early as sophomore year, and many co-author publications with faculty mentors. The department's pre-health advising and combined BS/MS track are particular strengths for students headed to medical, dental, or graduate school.
Courses & Registration
Course descriptions for all BIOL offerings are in the university catalog; scheduled sections for each term are published in SU‑SIS. This department has 11 class sections scheduled for Fall 2026.
