Overview

The Biology BSc programme from Albright College allows you to develop a comprehensive knowledge of, and appreciation for, the many dimensions of the living world and the close relationship of biology to other scientific disciplines, such as mathematics and chemistry.

Biology majors might focus on general biology, biotechnology, or other areas of interest, such as field work. Some students choose to combine Biology with another major. Biochemistry and Psychobiology are the most frequently chosen combinations, but many also co-major in History, Business Administration, or Spanish just to name a few. You also may choose a biology education program that leads to certification to teach high school biology in Pennsylvania.

Recently renovated and expanded, Albright’s Science Center offers more than 78,000 square feet of modern laboratory and classroom space.
