About the course

The Bachelor of Science in Biological Science provides students with broad exposure to fundamental biological principles and depth of knowledge in one of five concentrations chosen by the student. The program provides opportunities for faculty-mentored undergraduate research and is committed to integrating teaching and research. The curriculum provides preparation for: entry to health professions schools and graduate school in the life sciences, laboratory and field research, secondary school teaching, and jobs in conservation and environmental biology with government and private agencies, careers in research and pharmaceutical product sales, and biotechnology industry. Biology is the branch of science concerned with the study of life. The discipline is dynamic, diverse and expanding with the integration of molecular approaches, information technology, and concerns for the environment. Through the study of biology students will: learn principles that govern the function of their own body and those of other organisms, explore how complex organisms develop from a single cell and how genes and the environment govern these events, and learn how organisms that capture the energy from the sun ultimately sustain almost all life on Earth through intricate relationships with other organisms, including humans. In addition, in Southern California, proximity to a variety of businesses, ranging from biotechnology and biomedical companies to environmental consulting firms, provides biology majors with diverse employment opportunities.
