Biological Sciences

In the Department of Biological Sciences, undergraduate students participate in exciting interdisciplinary programs, including biology, biochemistry, biophysics, and environmental, pharmaceutical, or computer sciences. In their final year, students complete a research dissertation under the guidance of our dedicated faculty mentors. These mentors provide substantial guidance, supporting students in determining their interests and developing their career potential to become researchers. This intensive research experience, coupled with the support of our faculty, ensures that students are well-prepared for their future careers. For those who do not continue graduate studies, undergraduate research experience will still be an asset because it offers opportunities to learn how to conduct collaborative and individual work. Our department has state-of-the-art laboratories in our newest building, where students enjoy unparalleled opportunities to acquire advanced techniques and skills.
Our graduate programs in the Biological Science Course provide advanced education in biological science across various disciplines. A vital feature of these programs is the intensive research experience under the guidance of our esteemed faculty members. These faculty members are actively involved in various research fields, including microbial ecology, biophysics, molecular biology, molecular physiology, behavioral ecology, bioinformatics, and developmental biology. Students are encouraged to conduct original research, fostering their independence and preparing them for successful careers as scientists.
Upon graduation, our students have access to a broad range of career opportunities. Potential fields of work include biotechnology and medical research, machine manufacturers, renewable energy developers, environmental services and equipment, and many more.
