Program Description
Ecology and evolutionary biology, a specialization area in the biology major, provides a broad ecological understanding that can be applied to fields such as environmental and wildlife biology.
The biology major provides a strong background in the chemical and cellular basis of life and its many levels of organization, from molecular to ecosystem.
A specialization in ecology and evolutionary biology focuses the biology degree and gives students the flexibility to study the topics that interest them the most. Inheritance, molecular genetics, the biology of populations, behavior, the flow of energy in living systems, and evolutionary and ecological relationships are among the topics students could study in depth.
