Biology Degree

Modern biology is exceedingly broad in scope, therefore career opportunities for biology graduates are similarly broad. Auburn Montgomery’s program spans this range by providing several different concentrations that allow students to prepare for different career paths while pursuing the Bachelor of Science degree in biology.

• Microbiology and Public Health Concentration - The microbiology and public health concentration includes studies in microbial pathogenesis, principles of public health, epidemiology, molecular genetics, virology, environmental and industrial microbial processes. This concentration prepares students for technical work or graduate school in microbial disease systems using polymerase chain reaction, other molecular diagnostic tools as well as environmental and industrial applications of microbial systems. Microbiology and Public Health Biology Concentration Plan (Spring 2012);  Microbiology and Public Health Biology Concentration Plan (Prior to Spring 2012)
  
  
• General Biology Concentration - The general biology curriculum is designed to prepare students for a wide range of post graduate options including graduate school, health professions, and others. It is an excellent choice for students that know they want to study Biology, but are not certain what their ultimate goal may be.  General Biology Concentration Plan (Spring 2012); General Biology Concentration Plan (Prior to Spring 2012)
