Students are able to receive advising on a walk-in basis, or make an appointment to meet with a faculty member of choice. Professors are ready to talk after class or in their offices. That informal contact builds a special relationship that sometimes makes the difference in letters of recommendation for honors, fellowships, or graduate schools. UCR's Biology major prepares students for graduate study in the medical and program. Other career fields possible with a bachelor's degree in Biology from UCR include research and development, animal care, and environmental assessment and conservation.
Biology is a selecting major at the transfer level.
