BIOL 3400

Students examine critical issues in the diversity of life through the lens of great writing. Through weekly readings, students explore topics in biology that have inspired biologists to write for broad audiences. Students integrate their understanding of biology’s foundational role in modern life with the necessity of sharing its stories. Students analyze and practice well-known story-telling techniques in their own writing. To improve the biological stories they tell, students do two things: read a lot and write a lot.
