Why Biology? 

Biology is the study of life—from molecular raw material to single-cell organisms to multi-cellular plants and animals to how such organisms interact with the environment.

Biologists work to improve lives, sustain the environment and gain a better understanding and appreciation for the world. A degree in biology provides a basis for life-long understanding of the contributions biological sciences make to the world. A degree in biology also serves as a gateway for careers in healthcare, research, teaching or scientific journalism.
