PROGRAM

Biology is the study of life. The biology course at UAA aims to give students considerable awareness of life sciences involving environmental issues. We want the students to analyze the biological world and how it fits in everyday life synthesize and evaluate ideas and concepts. We aim to equip our students with scientific literacy, scientific thinking, leadership, open-mindedness, intercultural understanding, and the attitudes to respect and evaluate a range of points of view. We firmly believe these can only be achieved by internalizing and implementing scientific literacy and integrated science concepts in our teaching and in everything we do regarding student learning. Nowadays, information is in our reach through a variety of sources. Sorting the correct piece of information and applying it to the right problem is an essential skill. Nothing we face in life is unidirectional; therefore, a multidirectional way of thinking is the most potent weapon we must be equipped with.
