Overview

Bachelor of Science (BSc) in Biology

Biology is the scientific study of all living organisms – from the microscopic to the gigantic.

Students at Nipissing University explore Biology through enriched lab and field activities—gaining practical experience through hands-on interaction. 

Those who are most interested in ecological or environmental forms of Biology can amass diverse field experiences through outdoor labs, field trips, Field Camps, and research studies performed in numerous nearby ecosystems. 

Students who are most interested in laboratory, greenhouse, or health-related Biology can gain a wealth of skills and experience through exciting cutting-edge activities and research projects performed in our indoor research facilities, using top-of-the-line analytical equipment.

Faculty at Nipissing focus their diverse abilities and experiences on optimising their teaching and research to enrich student learning. 

The professors have studied and published on a wide range of academic topics, won research grants, written textbooks, worked with various industries, advised governments, and have been honoured with teaching awards.
