Biology Department

The Biology Department at UNF is committed to the search for understanding and knowledge through the scientific study of life and the dissemination of this information to students, the scientific community and the general public. The strength of the department lies in its broad based academic program, collaborative efforts of faculty and its integration of undergraduates in all aspects of research. The Biology Department has 32 full- and part-time faculty, who have secured more than $2.2 million dollars in funding for sponsored research in the past five years.  It offers a bachelor of science in biology degree with five areas of concentration, a biology minor and two graduate degrees (master of arts and master of science.) UNF’s Biology Department is also home to the Coastal Biology Flagship Program.
