在这里学什么？

Biology is the study of life and living organisms, including microbes, plants and animals, and the way in which they interact with one another and their environment. Core courses in this degree program give students a foundation in subjects such as evolution, biodiversity, ecology, molecular and cellular biology, microbiology, and the principles of genetics. The biology major prepares students for jobs in a wide range of competitive fields, as well as for further studies in graduate, medical or veterinary schools.

The biology major combines a challenging laboratory curriculum and engaging fieldwork into courses that capture the diversity of nature’s biological systems. UNH’s state-of-the-art facilities and location close to the New Hampshire Seacoast, Lakes Region and White Mountain National Forest provide a wide range of dynamic, hands-on research opportunities. Students are strongly encouraged to work closely with faculty in both the classroom and laboratory, and participate in research projects related to freshwater, estuarine and marine biology, physiology, neurobiology and behavior, genetics and behavior ecology, biology education, tissue culture, and biodiversity of terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems.

Program Objectives

Biology is one of the most popular science majors since it provides a broad background in the biological sciences while allowing flexibility and specialization within the major. It integrates theoretical and practical (hands-on laboratory and field work) courses in different aspects of the biology of multi cellular life. It encompasses the study of structural and functional relationships of living organisms at the molecular, cellular, and organismal level, the interactions of living systems with the environment and with each other, and the evolutionary relationships of life. Our goal is to create an environment for those with a scholarly interest in the biological sciences, and to extend their understanding, awareness, and appreciation of the diversity inherent in the biological sciences. Our major is aimed at promoting an excellent education in biological sciences by involving undergraduate students in a strong interaction with faculty both in the classroom and in research laboratories.

The biology major prepares students for post graduate degrees in the biological and medical fields, and for job opportunities in industry (environmental, biomedical, pharmaceutical, and biotechnological) and governmental research, and secondary school teaching. Completion of the four-year undergraduate program plus a fifth-year internship will be necessary for biology teaching certification. Students who plan to enter medical, dental, or related professional schools are advised to confer with their faculty adviser to work the requirements for these programs into their academic majors.
