职业规划

生物学是一个科学研究的生活物质的表现,包括植物、动物或微生物。如果事实、生物处理等非常广泛的范围方面和现象与生活世界——它的起源、发展、结构、基本的生物过程,函数,和交互模式,这是通常被称为一个聚合或网络科学。而是比压裂生物科学为独立的学科,生物学是细分为其逻辑层次的组织——有机体的细胞,分子和人口。根据优势,生物学家使用不同的研究方法和分析方法在研究生物体。巧合的是,一个主要的生物会导致非常不同的职业选择范围与生命科学有关。一些专业只关注整个生物与分子或细胞;其他研究整个生态系统如热带雨林和珊瑚礁。一些生物学家在虚拟隔离工作,进行测试和分析实验数据;其他人可能会与一大群人在常规的基础上开展公共研讨会或演讲的时候。无论工作环境,然而,大多数工作岗位新兴在生物领域,由于不断发展的技术和科学知识,需要多个领域的专业技能。 Furthermore, what becomes evident when sampling actual job listings is that companies are looking for applicants with cross-disciplinary training, as in evolutionary ecology or genetic toxicology or bioinformatics or biotechnology, etc. To take full advantage of the job market opportunities, it’s very important to consider integrating other sciences and mathematics into the biology-based coursework. A major in biology coupled with non-science skills, for instance, can lead to career paths in technical writing or scientific illustration. A combination of biology and psychology may result in neuroscience. Grouping biology with business classes will prepare individuals for hospital or biotechnology administration career paths. Some students opt for double majors in college to enhance their marketable skills. An undergraduate degree in biology provides a solid foundation for admission to the medical or dental school. Graduate students may branch out into pharmacology, plant pathology, conservation, ecology, gene therapy specialties, and the list goes on. Although ample entry-level career opportunities exist for biologists with just a Bachelor's degree in industry or government or K-12 education, a large number of research oriented as well as postsecondary teaching positions require either a master degree or a Ph.D. or a combination of Ph.D. and postdoctoral studies. Biological sciences are grounded in extensive scientific research, two interconnected types of research, to be exact. Basic research, purely scientific in nature, advances the development of new concepts and theories and serves as the basis for applied research. Applied research targets practical applications of new scientific discoveries. A bioscientist may be engaged in one type of research or the other or both depending on the place of employment and commensurate with the level of education. Biologists are hired by academic institutions, research facilities, biotechnology, agricultural, food, pharmaceutical, and health-related industries. Federal government agencies such as Fish and Wildfire Services, Environmental Protection Agency, Food and Drug Administration, National Park Service, as well as natural resources conservation boards, forest and agricultural services on a state level, happen to be a prime source of employment for a variety of biological specialties. Other employment opportunities are available in museums, private foundations, zoos and aqua parks.
