Undergraduate biology programs in smaller liberal arts colleges are increasingly becoming focused on health science fields. This narrowing of focus potentially decreases opportunities for these students to explore other sub-fields of biology.

The course focuses on empowering biology students to view science topics through multiple scales. © 2015, Association of College and Univesity Biology Educators. All rights reserved.
