CCBC developed the program in Biological Sciences to provide you with the first two years of study toward a four-year degree in biology, pre-medicine, pre-veterinary, pre-dental, wildlife biology, forestry, forensic science, biology education, and other related fields,

Courses in biology, chemistry, math, and the humanities serve as a core to provide you with a comprehensive curriculum. Our Biology program is also highly respected among four-year colleges and universities and will easily transfer.

Former students are currently working as medical doctors, osteopathic doctors, physical therapists, and chiropractors.
