The Immunology and Infectious Disease program tackles understanding invading pathogens and the body’s complex network of defenses that protect us from those invaders—the immune system. We study the role of drugs and vaccines and the epidemiology of infectious disease, and we conduct pioneering research targeting healthier future outcomes.
Pharmacology and Toxicology students study how natural and manmade substances affect living cells and the environment. This program is lab and research heavy and is excellent preparation for careers in the pharmaceutical and chemical industries, government agencies, and future academic work like medical and veterinary school.
The Veterinary and Biomedical Sciences program takes pride in not just preparing students for acceptance into veterinary and other biomedical schools, but in helping ensure they thrive and can take the lead when they get there. We offer the rigor and science-centered discipline that students will encounter at the next level of study with a hands-on approach to learning. Students have unparalleled opportunities to dive in and put their learning to work in critical, animal-focused research.
