Biology, BA

Biology at Greenville University

The biology major prepares students for careers in medical professions, food and quality control, pharmaceuticals, environmental science, biological research, and more. Biology is a growing field with new breakthroughs in genomics, medicine, molecular biology, and biotechnology. Our faculty achieve the highest knowledge and technical skills, contribute significantly to their chosen fields, and honor the Creator in their work.

Pre-professional programs related to biology include our pre-medical curriculum and pre-nursing curriculum, where you can earn a dual degree: a bachelor of arts with a major in biology and a bachelor of science in nursing (BSN) with one of our nursing partnership programs.
