Undergraduate Education

Are you curious about the world around you? Do you ever wonder why animals and other living organisms react to certain stimuli the way they do? Are you interested in behavior, biodiversity, ecology, conservation biology, evolution, marine biology, plant biology, paleobiology, physiology or tropical biology?

Our undergraduates engage in a wide variety of research projects and learning experiences which explore these areas and disciplines. Our students have traveled to Africa, South and Central America, and French Polynesia, among other locations, to conduct research and to experience life as a field or marine biologist. Many of our students have gone on to become successful figures in U.S. government, in the medical and health care field, as well as in the world of academia.

Research Quarters

"

The Field Biology Quarter has not only allowed me to obtain my dream job, but it is also a testament to my success in the field. I now work with a collection of over 76 species of animals, including canids, felids, primates, raptors, rodents and reptiles. As a manager I am in charge of not only the all staff biologist/educators but also of all aspects of the animals' care. I provide veterinary care, restraint, training and handling through operant condition, diet preparation, enclosure maintenance and quality behavioral enrichment.
