Methodist University - Biology Facilities

Biology Facilities

The Biology Department occupies approximately one-half of the Methodist University Science Building. Currently we have six laboratories that are used in teaching our courses. An NSF Grant provided equipment for the large modern lab which houses the microbiology and cell biology courses.

The stockroom, the introductory biology lab, a zoology lab, and the Biochemistry and Biotechnology lab have recently been remodeled and a greenhouse has been added. In the summer of 2007, a new wing of the Science building was opened, and several spacious new labs became available. A lecture hall is also housed in the new wing, as well as a small multi-purpose room which is available for such uses as study groups and club meetings.

Almost all of our Biology courses incorporate a laboratory component. One of the advantages of studying Biology at a smaller college is that we provide ample opportunity for "hands on" application of complex material discussed in class.
