http://www.bridgewater.edu/biology The biology department at Bridgewater College has a dual mission: 1) To provide comprehensive education in biological sciences to biology majors and other interested students 2) To advance our understanding of the natural world through original research To accomplish this mission, students take a core of biology courses including organismal biology, genetics, molecular biology, physiology, ecology and evolution. Students pursuing a bachelor of science in biology degree can develop depth in their area of interest by taking upper level electives in any of the major subdisciplines of biology. Almost all our biology courses have laboratory sections which complement lecture material and stress hands-on, inquiry-based learning and application of the scientific method. Students also get the opportunity to do independent or honors research projects with a faculty member, during both the school year and summer.
