Biological Science at UVM: get your mind fueled and your hands dirty.
Biological science is the study of life in all its forms and at all its levels. Biological scientists work to further human understanding of living things—their bodies, behaviors, interactions, genetics, histories, and futures—so that we might better appreciate, utilize, heal, and protect.
A walk down the halls of UVM's life science departments—biology, plant biology, microbiology and molecular genetics, biochemistry, neuroscience, plant and soil science, environmental science, and animal science—reveals the breadth of discovery at this renowned research institution. Students of biological science at UVM can explore any of these subjects and more.
