Students may choose from programs in biology that lead to a bachelor’s degree and, if elected, pre-professional preparation or secondary teacher licensure for the Colorado standard teaching license in science education.

Students following the Bachelor of Science and Bachelor of Arts degree programs prepare themselves for careers in private industry, natural resource management, or to continue their education in graduate programs and professional schools.

The department facilitates student learning through careful advisement, small classes, and an excellent teaching faculty.
