Our dedicated, experienced, teaching/research-oriented faculty are concerned about the academic well being of each student. Not only do we interact with students who are biology majors in class, we also serve as the academic advisers for these students.

We are continually updating our classrooms and laboratories with the latest in teaching and research instrumentation. We use these to promote thinking about concepts and problems in science and to develop explanations of data that these instruments provide. Examples of our latest data acquisition/computer technology include Biopac Data Acquisition and Analysis Systems for animal physiology experiments and cuvette-infra red spectrophotometry for plant physiology experiments.

We support research experiences and other academic enhancements by annually providing money to students on a competitive basis through our Hughes Grant-in-Aid Program.  Since the inception of this program students have used this money to study the tropical rain forests in Belize, the marine ecosystems in the Bahamas, chimpanzee behavior at the University of Nevada, as well as other activities.
