The Biology major at our School of Natural Sciences is designed for students with a passion for understanding life at all levels. Our program provides a solid foundation in biological concepts, from cellular processes to ecosystem dynamics. With hands-on lab experiences and research projects, students are prepared for advanced studies or diverse careers in the sciences.
Foundations Of Scientific Inquiry And Discovery:
The College of Natural Sciences begins with a strong emphasis on building a foundation in scientific inquiry and discovery. Students explore various scientific disciplines, including biology, chemistry, physics, and environmental science, allowing them to develop a well-rounded understanding of the natural world. This foundation equips them with the knowledge and skills necessary to conduct research and analyze the complexities of nature.
Hands-On Lab Experience And Scientific Research:
Beyond the classroom, our College of Natural Sciences places a significant emphasis on hands-on laboratory experience and engaging in scientific research. Students have opportunities to conduct experiments, collect data, and participate in research projects. These experiences not only enhance their practical scientific skills but also provide valuable insights into the world of scientific investigation.
Global Environmental Challenges And International Scientific Collaborations:
The College of Natural Sciences at Southeastern Michigan University is committed to addressing global environmental challenges and fostering international scientific collaborations. Our curriculum explores international perspectives on environmental issues, biodiversity, and sustainability, encouraging students to engage in collaborative research and initiatives with scientists and environmental experts from around the world. This global perspective equips students to contribute to solving pressing global environmental problems and advance our understanding of the natural world.
