Admission

The study of biology helps you prepare for careers in research, teaching, industry, government, medicine, medical technology, and several other health-related fields. Biology is among the most interdisciplinary of all sciences and requires a broad background in chemistry, physics, and mathematics. This background enables biologists to study the evolution of life; the manifestations of life from the level of viruses, bacteria, and individual cells to the structure and function of organisms; and the interactions of living organisms with each other and with their environments.

Departmental enrollment is growing. We now have over 300 majors, and also support over 75 agriculture majors. Approximately 57% of our B.S. graduates entered professional, certificate or graduate schools following graduation.

IPFW's biology department conducts admission policies for undergraduates under the same guidelines as IPFW itself. Therefore, prospective students should contact IPFW's Office of Admissions for further information.
