The Biology Department of Saint Francis University is committed to excellence in undergraduate education by offering a broad-based curriculum complete with current knowledge and the technical skills required for professional biologists. Through strong faculty mentoring, classroom instruction, laboratory experiences, undergraduate research opportunities, internships, professional affiliations, and extracurricular activities, we help our students to gain an understanding of and appreciation for the biological sciences, build valuable technical, analytical, and critical thinking skills, develop communication skills to effectively relate knowledge and ideas to both the scientific community and the general public, prepare for their futures in graduate and professional schools, or in the job market as professional biologists, teachers, or medical technologists, integrate their broad knowledge in biology and the liberal arts to make informed decisions as active, learned citizens in society. In addition, we support the liberal arts tradition by offering courses for non-majors that instill the ability to think and converse rationally on a wide diversity of current scientific topics. We also serve as resource persons for the University community and the larger non-academic community.
