Research: Biological & Chemical Sciences
Learn by Doing
Our expert faculty and students undertake hands-on research in areas such as anatomy and histology, animal behavior, biochemistry, cancer biology, genetics, microbiology, neuroscience, and molecular and cellular biology.
After building a foundation in the core disciplines of biology and chemistry, as well as interdisciplinary areas such as biotechnology, you’ll have multiple opportunities to perform hands-on research. Students also present their findings at university or national conferences and publish them in scholarly journals.
