The Gilliam Biological Research Station is a 700-acre property set aside by the University for multiple levels of biological research. Students and faculty have abundant opportunities to participate in plant, insect and wildlife surveys, long term studies of plant and animal physiology, and forest and wetland ecology studies. To follow along with this research, please visit the GBRS website at hugbrs.wixsite.com/gbrs and follow us on Facebook at “HU Gilliam Biological Research Station” and Instagram @hugbrs.
Research lab experiences are required for most majors. These courses include independent projects allowing students to investigate and collect data, perform data analysis and practice scientific writing. These labs offer a low student-to-teacher ratio for optimal learning. With prior approval, students may also receive research laboratory course credit for summer research internships at other universities. Students can learn more about these internships through our Facebook group “Harding Biology Research and Graduate Opportunities.”
Students participating in faculty-mentored independent research may earn a Research certificate, creating a portfolio of their work to demonstrate critical thinking, communication skills and contributions to their field of study.
As part of several courses, faculty and students travel to St. Jude Research Hospital in Memphis, Tennessee, to interact with scientists and learn about current research and tour laboratory facilities.
Dentists advise patients concerning their oral health and disease prevention while also consdering their overall health. Clinial procedures include exams, fillings, crowns, extractions and treatment of various oral conditions.
A degree in biology will lay a solid foundation for those who are interested in a career in health sciences. You'll be equipped with everything you need to be successful in professional schools such as medicine, pharmacy, occupational therapy, physical therapy and more.
Physical therapists diagnose and treat patients with injuries or other medical conditions that limit their abilities to move or carry out the functions of daily lives. Their evaluation includes examination and the development of a patient plan that reduces the need for surgery or prescription medication.
