Life Sciences

Using Notre Dame's state-of-the-art facility, the Jordan Hall of Science, students in the Life Sciences track engage in two major areas of study: Ecology and Environmental Science and Cancer Biology. Both content areas foster collaborative problem-solving skills and experiential understanding of science by actively involving students in the design, implementation, and analysis of experiments in molecular biology (i.e. cancer biology and molecular genetics) and environmental science (i.e. stream environmental assessment/restoration and lake ecosystem management).
