| Description | Selkirk College offers a great start to an undergraduate degree in biology. You can complete your first year in our learner-centered environment and then transfer directly into second year at all British Columbia universities. We also offer several second-year courses at Selkirk, which would apply toward your biology degree, wherever you choose to continue your studies. If biology isn’t your passion, but you need it for another program or degree that you are interested in, we offer a variety of biology courses that are relevant for non-biology majors as well.
Biology is the science of life, so it is relevant to everyone! If you like biology, you are curious about living creatures. You might be interested in learning about the complex structure of a bacterium, an insect, a plant or maybe you are interested in human health. You might also like exploring how intricate genetic, biochemical and physiological processes work. Or, perhaps you enjoy learning how organisms interact with their environment and how ecosystems function.
