Biology
Pursue a degree that opens the door to endless career options.
About
This major provides students with a solid foundation in biology through five core classes covering molecular, cellular, organismal, microbial, ecological, and evolutionary biology.
The flexibility in the program allows students and academic advisers to work together to design a course of study that best suits individual strengths and interests. Upper-division electives allow students to explore topics such as immunology, mammalogy, and animal behavior.
Students are invited to supplement their degree through undergraduate research projects, teaching assistantships, and internships.

“What stood out most about Lewis-Clark State's biology program was how much the faculty cared. They were knowledgeable, generous with their time, and genuinely invested in helping students succeed. At LC I was afforded opportunities that may have been hard to find at large schools, such as extracurricular student research, which ultimately helped me build lab and leadership skills that laid the framework for my future career. Leaving LC to begin training for my PhD, I found myself just as prepared as, if not better prepared than, my contemporaries, even those from nationally recognized institutions.” — Brayden Graves
