Description

Biology majors at UMF become members of a scientific community. Scientific techniques of field observation, experimentation, measurement, sampling and analysis are part of virtually every course. Students work side by side with professors in classes, laboratories and in the field conducting research in nearby forests, lakes, rivers, hospitals, health agencies and bio-technological settings. They become proficient in doing and communicating science, often making presentations in public and scientific arenas. A flexible choice of courses, research opportunities and work initiative projects gives students the ability to build their own area of specialization. Graduates go on to further study in graduate and health care professional schools, and to careers in a wide range of fields, including bio-technology, molecular and cellular biology, ecology, and environmental biology.
