Program Description

This program focuses on the diversity of life – from microbes to mammals, and molecules to ecosystems. The biology core provides a comprehensive foundation, and upper level courses specialize in areas from cell and molecular biology, to ecology and evolution. Laboratory experiences provide important, hands-on experience, whether indoors in a microbiology or genetics lab, or outdoors on tidal flats or in a forest. Many majors are involved in undergraduate research on campus, at field stations on Bon Portage Island and at Beaubassin, or throughout the region as part of Acadia’s Co-op program.
