The biology program at Franklin College will provide experiences that help students better understand the nature of science and the role of scientists in society. To fulfill this mission, the program provides courses that stress the important areas of cellular, organismal, systemic and environmental biology. Through laboratory, lecture, and discussion, science is presented not simply as a collection of facts but also as a process by which concepts may be generated. Upon completion of the major, students will have a well-rounded knowledge of biology as well as an understanding of the way to use scientific methodology to solve problems.
Biology is also available as a minor.
