Have you ever wanted to discover new life at the deepest parts of the ocean? Do you have an interest in developing sustainable agriculture? Would it be fun to brainstorm new food products for our grocery stores? Do you want to help people or animals feel better when ill? Or maybe you’d rather be behind the scenes, developing new drugs and therapies?
Whatever career you choose, a degree in biology can get you there. Biologists study life- from dinosaurs to plankton, from redwoods to lentils, from humans to bacteria, we’re here for it all.
Biology is a versatile discipline that can be tailored to individual interests and community needs. A degree in Biology prepares you for a career as a Research Scientist, Medical Laboratory Scientist, Forensic Scientist, Microbiologist, Food Scientist, Physician, Veterinarian, Wildlife Biologist, Epidemiologist, Pharmacist, K-12 science educator, Geologist, Fisheries Biologist, Hydrologist, Environmental Health Officer, Environmental Lawyer, or even a Science Journalist! This degree also prepares you for careers in natural resource management and environmental engineering.
Our programs will prepare you to transfer to four-year institutions or for direct entry into professional programs, like SCC’s Allied Health and Nursing programs.
So, what can you do with your Biology degree? Anything you want.
