About the course
The BS in biology curriculum lays the groundwork for strong scientific training with basic course work in mathematics, chemistry, and physics, relevant to biology. Students explore the organization and processes of life across broad areas of the field, from molecules and cells through organs and organ systems to populations, ecosystems, and evolution. Students can select advanced electives to specialize in a subdiscipline of biology such as developmental biology, stem cell biology, microbiology, or physiology. Our programs provide a wide range of relevant co-op opportunities in the renowned Boston-area biotechnology industry, hospitals, and research institutions, as well as across the country and at international sites. There are a number of interdisciplinary opportunities involving biology. These include programs in behavioral neuroscience and in biochemistry, as well as combined majors between biology and computer science, data science, English, mathematics, or political science. Due to curricular overlap, combinations of any two of these programs or of any one of these programs with ecology and evolutionary biology, marine biology, or bioengineering are not offered.
