Biology at Fresno City College is a learner-centered community of students, faculty, and staff working to advance our understanding and awareness of the biological world. Our program offers a wide variety of courses to prepare students for transfer to four-year institutions and various allied-health certificate programs.
The most common reasons for taking biology classes at FCC are:
The ADT in Biology is designed to prepare students for seamless transfer into a California State University (CSU) baccalaureate program in the biological sciences. This program may also prepare students for transfer to University of California (UC) biology programs, depending on the UC.
The Associate Degree (AS) in Biology is designed for students transferring into a number of fields in the Life Sciences. Depending on the coursework taken, the AS in Biology may provide pre-requisite fulfillment for entry into the Biological Sciences, Allied Health fields in addition to the fulfillment of general education requirements for students transferring to a four-year institution.
The Field Biologist Certificate is a designed to provide students with education and training in various aspects of field biology in preparation for entry level positions in resource management, environmental consulting and field based academic research. This program also provides for continuing education and field-based opportunities for students who are biological science majors.
