About the BA and BS in Biology Degree
Why Study Biology at Cedarville?
Do you have a passion to worship your Creator through studying and applying the sciences? Cedarville’s distinctly Christian biology major can help you do just that.
You can choose from two options:
- Bachelor of Science (BS) in Biology — The BS in biology offers you broad preparation in the biological sciences. This program is frequently pursued by students interested in biology focused on living organisms, such as zoology, plant sciences, premedical, and prehealth professions. You will complete the course requirements prescribed to enter leading graduate-level biology degree programs in the nation. This major enhances the student's depth of knowledge in biology and increases the breadth of exposure to chemistry, calculus, and physics.
- Bachelor of Arts (BA) in Biology — The BA in biology offers you a wide preparation in the biological sciences while allowing space to pursue additional courses and minors of interest. This program appeals to students pursuing a double major (BA in chemistry or life science education), prehealth emphasis with a minor (most commonly in psychology and/or Spanish), or a diverse set of other minors, or emphases such as environmental biology, agriculture, or history among others.
