Program Details

Biology School: Brandon University Faculty: Science Degree: Bachelor Field of Study: Biology/Biological Sciences, General Description: Biology is the science of life. In the Department of Biology, we offer courses and degree programs that deal with the scientific study of animals and plants, as well as fungi and other microbial life, and medical biology. It is an exciting, dynamic field that examines all aspects of life, from how organisms work at the cellular and molecular level, to their ecology and evolution. It includes the study of the estimated 30 million species currently living on the earth as well as the millions of other species that have gone extinct. Included within the scope of biology are subdisciplines such as anatomy, physiology, cell and molecular biology, bioinformatics, genetics, ecology, parasitology, evolution, paleontology, developmental biology, and immunology. These subdivisions, in turn, provide the fundamental knowledge on which the biomedical professions (e.g. medicine, dentistry, optometry) are based, as well as for careers in agriculture, wildlife biology, and environmental science.
