Overview

Students may choose an Area of Emphasis while studying in the Biology program at the Washington College that provides more indepth coursework in one of three areas: Cell/Molecular Biology & Infectious Disease, Ecology & Evolution or Physiology & Organismal Biology. If a student wishes to focus within an area of emphasis, the student’s Senior Capstone Experience (SCE) must also be designed with that focus in mind.

Quick Facts:

The Biology Department also seeks to emphasize to its majors that the discipline of biology is intimately related to many disciplines outside of the sciences.
As part of the major, students will gain an appreciation of the impact of biology on history, and they will appreciate the many philosophical and ethical questions that have biological underpinnings. Students are encouraged to find additional connections—to the humanities, to the social sciences, and to the other science fields—as they pursue their education.
