Our Bachelor of Science program combines a solid liberal arts
background with foundation courses in botany, zoology, cell biology,
ecology, chemistry, physics, and mathematics. Students with specific
interests in biology have opportunities to explore these in our B.S.
program by selecting from an extensive list of electives. Student
research is also a significant part of our program and students
working in all areas except for the B.S. in Medical Technology do
this.
The B.S. in Fisheries offers
extensive coursework in the discipline including fisheries
biology, fisheries management, and aquaculture. Graduates
meet the requirements for certification as Associate Fisheries
Professional by the American Fisheries Society.

We are truly unique in having
one
of the nation’s
leading

of academic preparation on campus and one year of clinical study
at a nearby hospital. Clinical studies include courses and training
in diagnostic microscopy, hematology, and histological techniques.
Mansfield is affiliated with the School of Medical Technology
at the Robert Packer Hospital in Sayre, Pennsylvania.
The B.S. Emphasis in Environmental Biology concentration
offers an interdisciplinary approach to environmental studies.
Students in this field take a mix of courses in both science and
geography. Our graduates work for state or local environmental
agencies or in the private sector.
|
The B.S., Cell and Molecular Track has a strong
chemistry emphasis and covers the cell and molecular techniques used
in modern research. This is the preferred track in preparation for
medical school.
A Biology minor is also available to non-majors. This
combines the core curriculum (botany, zoology, cell biology and
ecology) with several electives of interest to each individual
student.
