Welcome to the UMSL Biology Department!

Our missions:

  1. To teach students the fundamental principles of biology and help them understand the relationship between biological principles by developing their ability to think critically.
  2. To carry out cutting-edge research, from the level of individual molecules to that of global interactions between organisms and the environment.
  3. To disseminate the results of our research in scholarly publications, in our teaching, and, more broadly, by interaction with the local and national community.

What we offer our students:

The Department of Biology provides academic programs leading to a B.A. or B.S. in Biology. In cooperation with the College of Education, the department offers teacher certification. We also offer graduate work leading to Master of Science and Doctor of Philosophy degrees. For more information on our programs, please check out the links above.
