Department of Biology
The Department of Biology offers students:
- a highly-qualified and broadly trained faculty,
- a strong student work program designed to foster success in biology and
- one-on-one interaction with faculty
On-campus learning
The 26,000-acre campus is a natural outdoor classroom. Not only is the wooded and mountainous campus a beautiful site for various forms of outdoor recreation, it is the site of numerous short-term and long-term field experiences for students.
Off campus programs
While our on-campus curriculum is very broad, we also emphasize off-campus experiences including programs in Central America (Costa Rica, Belize), the Gulf Coast Research Lab, the Highlands Biological Lab, and short programs at various regional sites (e.g., Savannah River Ecology Lab, Robert Jones Ecological Research Station, and Coweeta Biological Research Station).
