Program Overview
Biology is the study of life, and this program offers students exciting opportunities to explore and enhance their understanding of the world in which we live.
By choosing to study biology at Acadia you will work closely with your professors to explore all facets of life – from molecules to ecosystems and from marine to arctic terrestrial systems.
A key component of many labs is the study of whole organisms. Acadia offers a balance of state-of-the art indoor and outdoor laboratory experiences, enhanced by the diversity of local habitats, as well as preserved specimens available from the E.C. Smith Herbarium and Acadia Wildlife Museum.
You will tackle current issues with hands-on learning that integrates theory, techniques, and practical approaches to biology. Our research programs immerse students in a diverse array of topics. Developing critical thinking skills and communicating science are key aspects in our teaching philosophy. Biology students graduate with a comprehensive understanding of whole-organism biology and competency in scientific methodology developed through a process of creativity, independence and ownership of the learning process.
Our small upper-level classes, focus on student-centred learning, and dedication to undergraduate research are only a few of the reasons why so many of our graduates move on to successful careers in the health sciences, environment, education, wildlife, industry, and government.
