Field Courses

Field courses are university credit courses that take place away from the university campus, usually at a research station in a rural or wilderness location. Most field courses have a very small class size.

Research Opportunity Program

The Research Opportunity Program (ROP) gives students in Biology real lab experience under the supervision of Biology Faculty while earning academic credit. Research Opportunities are available in all academic terms.

Professional Development

BioPath is a two-year professional development program. A core part of this program is the development of an e-portfolio that will showcase student learning, academic work, and career development.
