The curriculum offers a general foundation as well as advanced coursework toward many specializations. Evening studies are also available.<\/p>\n<p>Biology serves as a large umbrella for many kinds of scientists and professionals. Biologists conduct basic and applied experimental and clinical work in both the public and private sectors\u2014in the field, in zoos and wildlife refuges, in laboratories, and in medical settings. Just a few of the areas in which they work are wildlife and field ecology, conservation and environmental restoration, pharmaceuticals, biotechnology, and forensics. Although students with a BA may find employment as laboratory technicians, wildlife monitors, and other entry-level positions, those who hope to pursue a research career should plan to go on to graduate school. For many, biology is the first step toward medical, dental, or veterinary school. Biologists also work in law- and policy-related fields concerning scientific issues or in areas like scientific and medical illustration and writing.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_blurb][et_pb_button button_url=&#8221;https:\/\/www.qc.cuny.edu\/academics\/seys\/certification-biology\/&#8221; url_new_window=&#8221;on&#8221; button_text=&#8221;View Program&#8221; button_alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.19.5&#8243; custom_button=&#8221;on&#8221; button_text_size=&#8221;15px&#8221; button_text_color=&#8221;#E71939&#8243; button_bg_color=&#8221;#EFEFEF&#8221; button_border_width=&#8221;1px&#8221; button_border_color=&#8221;#E71939&#8243; button_border_radius=&#8221;13px&#8221; button_font=&#8221;Open Sans|600|||||||&#8221; button_icon=&#8221;&#x54;||divi||400&#8243; custom_padding=&#8221;||||false|false&#8221; custom_css_main_element=&#8221;width: 100%;&#8221; box_shadow_style=&#8221;preset3&#8243; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; custom_css_main_element_last_edited=&#8221;on|phone&#8221; custom_css_main_element_tablet=&#8221;width:80%;&#8221; custom_css_main_element_phone=&#8221;width:100%;&#8221; transform_styles__hover_enabled=&#8221;on|hover&#8221; transform_scale__hover_enabled=&#8221;on|hover&#8221; transform_translate__hover_enabled=&#8221;on|desktop&#8221; transform_rotate__hover_enabled=&#8221;on|desktop&#8221; transform_skew__hover_enabled=&#8221;on|desktop&#8221; transform_origin__hover_enabled=&#8221;on|desktop&#8221; transform_scale__hover=&#8221;105%|105%&#8221;][\/et_pb_button][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=&#8221;2_5&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.16&#8243; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_blurb title=&#8221;Office Information&#8221; use_icon=&#8221;on&#8221; font_icon=&#8221;&#xe026;||divi||400&#8243; icon_color=&#8221;#E71939&#8243; icon_placement=&#8221;left&#8221; content_max_width=&#8221;800px&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.20.0&#8243; header_font=&#8221;Open Sans|600|||on|||#E71939|&#8221; header_text_color=&#8221;#E71939&#8243; body_text_color=&#8221;#000000&#8243; body_font_size=&#8221;16px&#8221; hover_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; sticky_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243;]<\/p>\n<p><strong>Location:<\/strong> Science Building D346<br \/><strong>Phone:<\/strong> 718-997-3400<br \/><strong>Fax:<\/strong> 718-997-3445<\/p>\n<h4><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline\">Office Information For <\/span><\/strong><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline\">Secondary Education<\/span><\/strong><\/h4>\n<p><strong>Chair: David Gerwin<\/strong><br \/><strong>Dept.
