Our faculty bring research and teaching experience in areas such as developmental biology, cell and molecular biology, bioinformatics, genetics, agricultural biogeochemistry and plant pathology. Students also engage with research in genomics, microbiomes, ecology, signal transduction pathways and science communication. Through small classes, fieldwork in nearby coastal and agricultural ecosystems and access to specialized labs, you’ll gain applied skills that connect scientific theory to real-world challenges.

In the Department of Biology and Chemistry, you’ll also benefit from faculty mentors dedicated to your success, preparing you for careers in science, health, agriculture, education and research — or for advanced study in graduate and professional programs.
