In keeping with the mission of Dartmouth College, the faculty and staff of the Department of Biological Sciences are committed to providing educational and research experiences of the highest quality for undergraduate and graduate students as a means of developing a deeper understanding of biology at the levels of molecules, cells, organisms and the environment.
The department offers numerous and diverse courses in biology, including our foreign studies program. These courses may be combined in different ways to complete the requirements of the major.  We stress the development of critical thinking and problem solving skills both in the classroom and as students conduct original research in faculty laboratories.
The biology department now has two locations: Gilman Hall in Hanover, NH and Centerra Bio Labs in Lebanon, NH. When visiting our Gilman location, be sure to visit the Murdough Greenhouses. The greenhouses are home to a unique teaching collection that includes the Brout Orchid Collection.
