Description:

At Hillsdale, we aren't afraid to put “What is the meaning of life?” front and center in your education. This major is an opportunity to answer that question from a biological perspective. You'll look at how humans relate to their environment and how the process of evolution affects biological organisms. You'll explore scientific ethics and the rights and responsibilities of being a scientist. All labs are taught by professors, not teaching assistants, and you'll have access to the kind of equipment that's often available only in graduate programs elsewhere. You'll also conduct a lot of hands-on research—in fact, all biology majors are required to undertake a research project starting in their junior year. Biology is offered as both a major and minor.
