Biology | Bachelor’s Degree

Description

Bennington biology students engage in all types of biological questions, taking advantage of well-equipped labs, a diverse natural landscape, and a broad range of faculty expertise. Bennington’s Field Work Term provides a special opportunity to work with research teams and applied biologists around the world at major research hospitals and universities, with national park scientists and managers, and at world-class field-stations.

At Bennington, you design your own course of study and work, taking full advantage of the College’s resources both inside and outside the classroom. This process goes beyond the bounds of a traditional major. You identify one or more areas of interest that spark your intellectual curiosity and provide a foundation for your academic work and fieldwork, and you pursue that work with ongoing guidance from your faculty. This is your Plan.
