The Biology major takes a broad approach to explore the science of life at all levels, from molecules to ecosystem. Courses offered cover the breadth of traditional and modern biology such as evolution, diversity, and ecosystems; cell structure and function; molecular genetics and microbiology; current genetics; physiological and biochemical processes occurring in both plants and animals; molecular biotechnology; behavioural biology; and developmental biology. Our courses use a range of teaching modes including lectures, practical/field trips, and academic exercise, through which to equip you with critical thinking, analytical reasoning, and communication skills.
