Ohio State University’s BS in Evolution and Ecology provides students with a deep understanding of the mechanisms of biological change and the complex interactions among organisms and their environments. The curriculum includes evolutionary theory, population biology, genetics, field ecology, and conservation science. Students engage in lab work and field research, studying biodiversity, adaptation, and species interactions across ecosystems. Graduates pursue careers in wildlife conservation, environmental consulting, research, and graduate programs in biological sciences.
