As part of the Department of Physical and Applied Sciences, the mission of the Biology program coincides with the entire Madonna University mission regarding career preparation, and service to others and society based on Judeo-Christian principles as advanced by the Felician Sisters. The Biology program incorporates this mission while also making a strong commitment to liberal arts education.

Though focusing on science in particular, the sciences are taught with a global perspective, incorporating the role of Biology applications in social, environmental, ethical and human issues. 

Natural Science and Integrated Science programs are Madonna University's most cross-disciplined programs. With a degree in Natural Science or Integrated Science, students have many career options available, such as pursuing education, going on to medical school, or aiming for other avenues open to science students. The majority of our graduates move on to educational careers and find it very rewarding.
