Biologists study many aspects of how life operates from the molecular details of how cells work to how entire ecosystems function. The course offerings in the Cal Lutheran Biology Department reflect this diversity, with courses ranging from molecular to marine biology. The Biology Department emphasizes doing science rather than listening to it or reading about it. Small classes and the availability of a faculty with diverse research interests allow students to get involved in ongoing scholarship. Students are encouraged to join faculty mentors as collaborators, either in formal laboratory or field classes, or in mentored research outside of the classroom. Undergraduate researches projects help make Cal Lutheran graduates more competitive in their chosen career paths. At Cal Lutheran, biology majors typically focus on one of three general career paths: health careers, which include physician, dentist, veterinarian or physical therapist; research in biological fields such as botany, physiology, marine biology, ecology, genetics or molecular biology; or teaching. Careers in biology are available in both government and private companies and include positions in research, teaching, administration and sales of pharmaceuticals or medical equipment. In addition, the growing areas of genetics and biotechnology provide many career opportunities. The global biotechnology company Amgen is located near the University and hires Cal Lutheran graduates each year. Likewise, many biology majors from Cal Lutheran are accepted into medical, dental and graduate schools throughout the United States. Students interested in careers in teaching may obtain teaching credentials through the School of Education.
