Some examples include Earth Sciences, Biochemistry, Psychology, Mathematics, and History. Within the Biology Program a student can also specialize in an area such as Marine Biology, Microbiology, Cell and Molecular Biology, Ecology and many more. Currently the Department is reviewing the nature of its programs to better reflect the needs of students and the resources of the Department. The programs however will include all of the above fields of study. A number of graduates pursue professional degrees by enrolling in Medicine, Dentistry, Veterinary Medicine, Law, and Education to name a few.
Graduates can pursue further education and become a medical doctor, dentist, or chiropractor.
Work may involve finding new cures for diseases or helping to breed new high-yield crops. Graduates with a Bachelor degree or a Masters degree could work in a support field with diagnostic laboratories. But Biology graduates are not limited to laboratories. You could even work with medical supply companies and government agencies as sales representatives. Biology students may also go on to obtain qualifications in areas such as speech therapy, optometry, and other related fields.
