Since Anton van Leeuwenhoek first observed the microorganism in the 17th century, biology has played a role in some of the greatest discoveries in history. Today, the field of biology is multidimensional, offering promising careers in medicine, ecology, agriculture, sports fitness, genetics, research, biotechnology, and industry, to name a few. The study of life on earth is as varied as life itself. In Nazareth?s Biology program, students are mentored by biologists who assist them in the understanding of biology\\\'s basic principles, discoveries, and theories.
