Your Gift Supports
The WOU Biology Department offers world-class, evidence-based, scientific education to students. WOU Biology students have the opportunity to learn from some of the Pacific Northwest’s premiere biologists in the classroom, in the field, and in state-of-the-art laboratories. Students also have the chance to participate in faculty research, giving them valuable hands-on experience and helping to build their academic resumes.
Graduates of the WOU Biology program go on to become scientists, researchers, and teachers, among a host of other career paths open to science graduates. Many of them matriculate directly to graduate programs in Biology or related fields. No matter where their career takes them, they are well-prepared to contribute to their employers and their communities as thinkers, scholars, and scientists.
Help us reach our goal of $5,000 this year on Giving Day! Your gift will support and enrich the student experience in Biology by helping students engage in research, attend conferences, travel to events, and explore further career and educational opportunities.
