Biologists examine living organisms and learn how they grow, operate, function and develop. With this knowledge base, biologists have the opportunity to improve lives through work in research, medicine or education. At Walsh University, biology majors have access to state-of-the-art, fully equipped laboratories and facilities. In addition, they learn from Walsh's highly trained, experienced faculty who are great teachers, caring mentors and experienced researchers.
Faculty with Experience. Each of our Ph.D. Biology faculty members specialize in their areas of expertise. They are excellent teachers and competent researchers.
Diverse Course Offering. Biology majors choose from a wide assortment of electives that satisfy their personal and professional interests. In addition, Biology majors can choose to specialize in the study of Environmental Science.
Early Research Opportunities. Undergraduate students often work alongside graduate students and faculty to conduct cutting-edge research in areas such as health care, water purity and more.
State-of-the-Art Facilities. Walsh houses laboratories equipped with the latest technologies, giving our students a chance to work with the instruments and tools used in the field.
“Walsh University gave me the opportunity to shape my education in any direction that I wanted through the interdisciplinary architecture of the courses I was enrolled. This also enabled me to graduate on time with a major in biology and three minors in chemistry, sociology and history. As a graduate student, I will have the opportunity to work with our partners at NASA to help uncover the question the world has been wondering for years, ‘what happens to the body when it’s in space?’ Once I complete my doctorate, my ideal job opportunity would be to continue my role with the Air Force/NASA.”
