Overview

We think that in the Biology program of York College of Pennsylvania you learn best by doing. That’s why right from the start, you’ll start getting familiar with our state-of-the-art labs as we prepare you for post-graduate work or a career using equipment you’ll already know how to use before your first day on the job.

Whether your focus is on the molecular or organismal level, we have passionate, knowledgeable faculty — with terminal degrees and published research to their credit— to guide you, as well as our Richard Clark Lecture Series with guest experts to broaden and challenge your thinking. You will even have the opportunity to present your research at regional and national science conferences — an incredible experience.

Concentrations

Biotechnology

Have you ever wondered how an instrument works or how a technique was developed? A concentration in biotechnology will provide you a greater understanding of how these are used in biomedical and health-based industries. Hands-on experience isn’t just offered, it’s the core of the biology program. Our class sizes are small, giving you access to individual attention from industry-leading faculty who are invested in your success. Through internships in your chosen field, you will gain real-world experience in applications and techniques to be successful, from day one.

Cell and Molecular Biology

Have you ever wondered… How do cells move? Shouldn’t water soak through our skin when we shower? A concentration in cell and molecular biology answers these questions. You will develop an in-depth understanding how the techniques of molecular biology and genetics are used to understand cell function. In our state-of-the-art laboratories, you will work alongside passionate and knowledgeable faculty who are dedicated to your success.
