Kingfisher: Biology

Kingfisher Concentration - Biology requirements (9 Credits)

Chair: Alistair Cullum, acullum@creighton.edu
Department Office: Hixson-Lied Science Building, Room 448

The Biology Kingfisher Concentration introduces students to foundational and advanced courses across the major subdisciplines of modern biology. Lecture and lab experiences are grounded on fundamental principles. In addition to the General Biology courses, a diversity of life science topics are available in upper division courses at the cellular and molecular, organismal, and ecological and evolutionary biology levels. Students can design a study plan which allows an in-depth exploration of one area or a broader survey of several sub-disciplinary areas of biology.

This Kingfisher Concentration has an associated minor that allows for continued study of these topics: Biology Minor
