The Department of Biology and Chemistry, housed in the School of Humanities and Sciences, provides an environment in which students can develop a Christian worldview and learn to integrate their faith into their lives as scientists. The department offers four undergraduate majors (allied health, biochemistry, biological sciences, and chemistry) and two minors (biology minor and chemistry minor) and the Master of Science in Biotechnology program, while also offering courses that meet the goals of the General Education program and lend support to students in other majors. Additionally, available research and conference opportunities complement students’ classroom learning and prepare them for graduate or professional studies and for success in their chosen careers.
Mission Statement
The Department of Biology and Chemistry serves God through the integration of a Christian perspective into the disciplines of biology and chemistry and the preparation of Christian men and women to serve in leadership or support roles in these sciences.
