Biology Programs at EAC

Eastern Arizona College’s four associate degree programs in biology — offered in biological science, environmental technology, forestry, and wildlife biology — are proven to launch successful careers in the biological sciences. EAC’s Associate in Applied Science prepares students with skills to take directly to the workforce, while our Associate of Arts and Associate of Science degrees meet the requirements for the first two years of a four-year bachelor’s program at Arizona’s public, and many other, universities. You can transfer with junior status after building a strong academic foundation in small, stimulating classes taught by quality faculty and offered at an extremely affordable tuition cost. You are encouraged to work closely with an academic adviser and consult the official transfer guide to ensure you are on the correct course to maximize course transferability. 

 

A Resource-Rich Learning Environment

At EAC, your classroom extends to the unique living laboratory that surrounds our campus. The Gila Valley is rich with natural resources. Our backdrop to the southwest is Mount Graham — part of the Pinaleno Range with five life zones supporting a variety of lush fauna and flora, some known only to this range. To the northeast, you’ll find the 23,000-acre Gila Box Riparian National Conservation Area. At our Discovery Park campus, you have access to award-winning restored wetlands, a ranarium built in cooperation with the US Fish & Wildlife Service, and so much more.
