From electrons to ecosystems, you’ll gain an advanced understanding of how biological organisms work at one of Indiana’s premier Christian college Biology programs.
Because the Biology Investigations & Applications major is designed for students wanting to become professional biologists, research development, production, and reporting is a significant part of the degree program. You'll take a Research Proposal course, which unpacks how to plan for a research project. From there, you'll systematically conduct and report on research, taking the project from inception to end results. By working through the entire sequence of research, you'll be well-prepared for post-graduate studies and careers.
Mentored by experienced faculty, you’ll be encouraged to relate your faith to the study of biology and prepare for a biology career.
