Study the Beauty and 多样性 of Life

Biology professionals explore the function, 发展, and growth of the living systems that make our natural world. Their goal is to understand the building blocks of complex living structures and apply that learning to address real world issues.

Warner Pacific’s 生物科学 degree provides broad training with the flexibility to specialize in Human Biology or General Biology.

This degree includes course work needed to prepare students to pursue medical school admissions for further graduate studies in biology, or to teach high school biology.

The majority of students majoring in 生物科学 will continue their education through graduate programs or professional studies.
