Biological Sciences
Department of Biological Sciences
Our courses promote an understanding of modern biological principles, foster independent thinking, deepen the understanding of biology's relevance to modern societal issues and encourage personal growth in scientific writing and research. Many courses have internet components to improve the students analytical powers and information technology skills which are valuable for success in life beyond college. Programs at Kingsborough Community College provide biology majors with an excellent foundation to transfer to four year colleges and universities, and to transfer to professional schools in the allied health sciences. The department offers two degree programs: A.S. Biology and A.S Biotechnology.
