Choose Your Path

Thomas More offers Bachelor of Arts degrees in biology and medical technology, as well as Associate of Arts degrees in biology, exercise science and gerontology. Biology majors choose to specialize in either cellular/molecular biology, organismic biology or environmental/evolutionary biology. Medical technology majors spend three years at Thomas More training to work in laboratories and a fourth year interning at St. Elizabeth Medical Center, where more than one million laboratory tests are done each year. No matter what direction you choose, Thomas More can help you achieve your career goals.

Program Highlights

Qualified Professors
All of your courses, including labs, will be taught by full-time (or occasionally part-time) faculty - not by graduate students.

Hands-On Learning
We emphasize "hands-on" learning. Eight of the 10 required biology courses have a lab component.

Broad Knowledge
We encourage students to develop a broad scientific base of knowledge and skills by requiring biology majors to take chemistry and physics courses.

"Real Life" Applications
You will have many opportunities to learn practical applications of your newly acquired skills and knowledge through co-op, independent study and research opportunities.
