Bachelor of Science (B.S.) in Biology

Do you ever wonder about such questions as:

• What forces and pressures are actively involved in changing, sculpting and developing our planet?
• Does our high instance of wasted energy and power spell trouble for the next generation?
• Do plants and animals adapt constantly to the environmental changes or does something else play a role in the interactions that keep the life cycle in a perpetual state of change?

Then you need to discover the biology program at Reinhardt. Biology majors learn the skills and knowledge necessary for pre-professional programs including: pre-dentistry, pre-ecology, pre-medicine, pre-pharmacy, pre-physical therapy and pre-veterinary. The B.S. in Biology provides students with the education to be experienced biologists, as well as broad-based scientists.

"Hands-on" Experience
Biology courses are tailored so you get valuable hands-on experience. Students have participated in such experiences as: taking an inventory of all birds on-campus, dissecting various types of animals, and surveying fields to discover the correlation between woodchucks and kudzu.

Independent research is highly encouraged, and a number of current students and alumni have become published researchers in their field of study.

Expert Faculty
Do you want to learn about genetics from a geneticist? Or about the human anatomy from a medical doctor? Do you want insight on reptiles and amphibians from an expert? Or an explanation about the origin of oil from an oil petrologist?

The biology faculty is experienced in the field and in the classroom. "We are passionate about what we do, and it reflects in our teaching," said Dr. Eddie Robertson, professor of biology and biology program coordinator.
