Friends University offers a Bachelor of Science in Biology that is centered around a strong core of biology and chemistry courses. The General Biology option allows students to design a program for their specific career goals.

All of the professors teaching in the Biology program have earned their doctoral degrees and are involved in teaching and research with undergraduate students in areas ranging from studies in local bird populations to DNA/molecular biology research. We encourage our students to participate in research with a professor in an area that interests them.

Our facilities are located in William Penn Science Building, which has been equipped with the latest equipment for teaching and research. The Natural Science and Mathematics Division also has computers in the laboratories in order to integrate computer technology with basic scientific experiments.
