The Department of Biological Sciences has a long
tradition of excellence and offers a broad range of program options
that provide students with the flexibility to enter a variety of careers
in the areas of conservation, bio-medical fields, and education. Our
alumni have found careers in biology throughout the United States
and the world.
Our roster of alumni includes a former governor of Kansas -- and two
biology faculty, Lyman Wooster (1912-1928) and Gerald Tomanek (1947-1987),
served as president of the university during their tenures at FHSU.
Albertson Hall is named in honor of former department chair Fred Albertson,
who served the university and its students from 1918 to 1959. This
tradition of excellence continues today through our active faculty,
a complete renovation of Albertson Hall (completed May 2001), and
the opening of the new Sternberg Museum of Natural History (March
1999).
We encourage all prospective undergraduate and graduate students to
contact us to arrange a visit with our faculty and a tour of our facilities.
Suggestions for improvements to the Department of
Biological Sciences website are welcome.
Faculty are responsible for the content of their personal webpages.
