Careers

It is important to remember that your major does not determine what your career will be.  With a liberal arts education, YOU, not your major, will determine your career path.  

On the right is a comprehensive list of job titles of Dickinson alumni who majored in Biology.
 

Career-Related Skills

  • Precision: Steady hands develop by doing dissections and handling equipment. Biology majors also develop an acute sense for detail.
  • Objectivity: Biology majors must check their hypotheses so that the results are accurate rather than reflections of their own ideas.
  • Analytic Thinking:The ability to analyze data is essential. Majors must synthesize information from texts and observations in order to solve problems.
  • Communication: Majors learn through numerous oral presentations and written reports, both featuring photographs and graphs of data, in order to communicate clearly to those not as well-versed in the topic.  
  • Persistence: Majors solve problems by collecting large amounts of data over a period of time
