About the course

The Department of Biological Sciences was established in 1927, at the time there were five faculty members. At its inception courses were offered in various disciplines, such as zoology and botany. The focus of the Department gradually changed from preparing students for careers in secondary education to preparing them for entry into professional and graduate schools. The Department was housed in the Administration Building until 1928, when Harned Hall was completed. In 1948, the department was approved to offer the Master of Science degree, and later in 1997 the doctor of philosophy. Today, the department consists of 20 faculty, 55% of whom are actively engaged in ongoing research programs. A variety of courses in the botanical, microbiological, molecular biological and zoological life science areas are offered at both the undergraduate and graduate levels.
