Explore Biology-Chemistry at Immaculata University

Every activity that sustains life on the planet takes place only because of the chemical properties of the atoms, molecules and compounds involved. Recognizing the considerable overlap in the biology and chemistry programs, Immaculata has combined the two disciplines so that you can gain the most knowledge from both academic fields.

The B.A. in biology combined with the B.A. in chemistry is intended for students pursuing interdisciplinary careers requiring a strong foundation in both biology and chemistry.

"After getting exposure to the hands-on experiences in the biology labs, I knew this was something I enjoyed doing. My passion for biology was further confirmed with courses like Microbiology and Genetics. I was fascinated with learning about life on such a granular level. Additionally, the passion for teaching and guiding their students that the biology professors have just made learning that much more enjoyable. With relatively small class sizes and such knowledgeable professors, it made these inherently difficult classes much more manageable. I would like to thank both the biology and chemistry department for giving me a strong foundation that ultimately allowed me to excel in pharmacy school."
