Professors Bavis, Dearborn, Hill (Earth and Climate Sciences and Biology), Horton, and Williams; Associate Professors Huggett (chair), Kruse (Biology and Neuroscience), and Mountcastle; Assistant Professors LeFlore (Biology and Africana) and Shahi; Visiting Assistant Professors Despard and Slane; Lecturer Salazar-Perea.

Biology is the study of living systems and how they interact with the nonliving world and with one another. It is a discipline that bridges the physical and social sciences. Students who major in biology become familiar with all levels of biological organization from molecules to ecosystems, and gain practical experience in both laboratory and field studies.
