Biological science is a vast field of study. It's the study of life, which means it covers all aspects of living organisms, from individual cells to entire ecosystems. You can focus on any part you want, from the molecular workings of cells to the behaviour of large populations of animals.

Some of the most popular careers in biology are animal behaviourist, marine biologist, and microbiologist.

Some careers in Biology you might consider are:

  • Environmental scientist
  • Forensic scientist
  • Medical researcher
  • Biomedical Scientist
  • Veterinarian
  • Medical Researcher
  • Entomologist
  • Ecologist
  • Aquatic Biologist
  • Zoologist

Biology is a broad range of topics, from the study of life to the study of animal and plant communities. You can learn about life processes or how organisms interact with each other and their environment. Biology informs our understanding about ourselves and the world we live in, and is therefore one of the most important disciplines you can study.
