Overview

Biology and life sciences will prepare you for a career in medicine or the health professions, for a teaching career in secondary schools, or as a prerequisite for graduate study in science. As part of your liberal arts education, Evergreen’s mixture of interdisciplinary study and hands-on lab and field research will teach you how to apply scientific principles to solving real-world problems.

Studying the Biology program from Evergreen State College is a different experience than what science majors get at most universities. Here biology, chemistry, physics, and other disciplines are woven together, providing a unique interdisciplinary education. From high-tech labs to field studies, you’ll develop an appreciation of the levels of organization of life, their diversity, and how physical, chemical, and geological processes have shaped life on earth.

After Graduation

Evergreen biology graduates have an excellent record of success in graduate and professional schools, as well as working in a variety of scientific and technical fields. An Evergreen biology degree prepares you for jobs in laboratories, universities, or industry, and is excellent preparation for earning a graduate degree.

It can be your springboard into professional school, where you’ll train to become a physician, dentist, veterinarian, or attorney. Or you can earn a teaching certificate so you can teach in high-demand science in K-12 schools. You’ll also be well prepared for a career in sales and marketing in science-related industries. The possibilities are limited only by your energy and ambition.
