The Biology Department has several labs in Hayden Hall and the Leo Building. These are specific labs dedicated to research and teaching in the following areas:
- Microbiology
- Animal paleontology
- Genetics/developmental biology
- Ecological research
- Plant morphogenesis
There is also a greenhouse, as well as ample equipment and supplies for our students to conduct cutting-edge research. Students are involved in the entire process of scientific investigations, from learning about a subject to building and testing hypotheses, conducting experiments, analyzing results and evaluating data in the context of previous scientific evidence.
