Bachelor of Arts [B.A] [Biology] From Fitchburg State University

All students follow a general program of study through a sequence of core courses, electives and a capstone course. In the capstone course, students apply their understanding of the process of scientific inquiry to semester-long research projects. In addition to the major course of study, students may also elect to pursue one of several tracks or concentrations within the major for a more focused course of study in contemporary, specialized fields. The department also offers minors in biology and chemistry, teaches courses in laboratory science for students in all other majors, and sponsors a post baccalaureate program for those who already hold a bachelor?s degree and wish to become a teacher of Biology in Secondary Education.
