Be a Part of the Century of Biology

The 21st Century has been called the Century of Biology. Discoveries over the past 150+ years have brought us to the cusp of a deep understanding of how life on Earth originated, functions, and interacts at both the micro- and macro- scales. We have also developed tools and technologies that will enable us to transform the treatment and outcomes of disease, identify and better protect an increasingly diverse array of species, enhance our ability to produce food and other resources for the world, and increase the quality of life. WKU Biology offers degree programs that are at the cutting edge of this new age. 

We know choosing which college or university to attend, and what you study, are major decisions. We think it’s important you choose a school and field of study that feel comfortable, make you happy, challenge and motivate you, help you succeed, and prepare you for life and career. The opportunities provided by a degree from WKU Biology will challenge you as you ready yourself for a dynamic career and fulfilling life.
