The Department of Biology
seeks to further the aims and purposes of Freed-Hardeman
University by: (1) making the student more conscious
of God and design in natural phenomena; (2) furthering
the student’s general education by contributing
to his or her cultural background and helping
him or her to enjoy the aesthetic qualities of
the natural world; (3) imparting some understanding
of the methods of scientific investigation, thus
building a foundation for further research and
advanced study in biology and various related
fields; (4) preparing students in the health-related
preprofessional fields and offering a sound background
for those desiring to teach biology; and (5) preparing
students for positions in industry, civil service,
etc., that require a background in biology.
