Graduates with Biology degrees from UA become physicians, dentists, pharmacists, veterinarians, and university professors, as well as conducting a variety of biological research in firms such as Enviroscience, Battelle Memorial Institute, Ohio EPA, Ohio Nature Conservancy, and Ohio DNR.
Biology is the fastest-growing field of science today and its impact is carried to many fronts: medicine and health care; the environment and climate change; and global food sources. A degree in Biology can prepare a student for professional schools, such as medical, dental, veterinary and pharmacy. Alternatively, in collaboration with the College of Education, the degree can prepare a student to teach high school biology. Graduates with Biology degrees from UA become physicians, dentists, pharmacists, veterinarians, and university professors, as well as conducting a variety of biological research in firms such as Enviroscience, Battelle Memorial Institute, Ohio EPA, Ohio Nature Conservancy, and Ohio DNR. UA students gain experience in these areas through research opportunities in academic laboratories, internships with local businesses, and with co-ops.
