Biological science is the study of life in all its forms, from the single-celled to entire ecosystems. Our biological sciences program offers a broad foundation in the basic principals of biology you need to build your career. We offer opportunities for specialization in biology education, biomedical science, and ecology that make your college experience your own and your degree exactly what you want it to be. And, you’ll work with faculty mentors in microbiology, physiology, plant biology and zoology to put your biggest dreams in reach.
Living Learning Communities are on-campus residential units that bring students of like majors or like interests together.
Undergraduate research opportunities give you the chance to take your own academic interests as far as you want to go.
SIU offers more than 400 RSOs, giving you with every opportunity you need to make friends based on similar interests or career goals. Check out the Microbiology Student Organization, Saluki Science Ambassadors or the SIU Student Chapter of the Wildlife Society and Zoology Club – just for starters!
Start building your career in biological sciences with an undergraduate assistantship. You’ll work on research related to your major, build relationships with faculty, learn lab skills, enhance your resume, and make money all at the same time.
