Your Future with Biology
Park Ranger:Known as either a park ranger or park warden, they preserve and protect local, provincial, or national parks and the natural resources they contain. The requirements for the position can vary depending on the park's location, but their duties are typically dynamic and they often perform multiple roles, including acting as law enforcement officers, historians, and environmental experts.
Quality Control Technician:Research assistants collect and prepare biological samples (which may include blood, food, or bacteria) for other biologists or scientists in the medical field. They may also assist scientists with other laboratory functions and duties, including maintaining equipment, documenting research results, and performing fieldwork. Research assistants may work in a variety of locations, including corporate, government, non-profit, and academic settings.
Science Teacher:Science teachers educate students at various levels of the education system on the fundamentals and basics of biology. Typically, a science teacher has strong communication, organizational, and time management skills. The daily duties of a science teacher can include creating lesson plans, performing lectures, answering student questions, assigning homework, and grading academic assignments. Working as a science teacher can also be an important first step toward a professorship in biology, or performing independent research in the field.
Forensic Scientists:Forensic scientists assist in criminal investigations by collecting and analysing biological evidence as it relates to a case. There are a variety of disciplines involved in forensic science, some of which are biology related. Typically, forensic scientists specialize in either laboratory analysis or crime scene investigation.
Physical Therapists:Physical therapists assist patients in managing chronic pain and various conditions, typically working to improve a patient's mobility and range of motion. They also assist with patient rehabilitation, injury prevention, and the treatment of chronic injuries and conditions. Having an undergraduate degree in biology is a prerequisite for any job in physical therapy.
Dentist:A dentist's duties can include examining, treating, and diagnosing their patients' teeth, gums, and other parts of the mouth. Dentists often repair fractured teeth, fill cavities, take patient X-rays, and offer cosmetic services like tooth whitening. They may also educate patients on how to brush and floss their teeth, and which healthy eating habits they can practise cavities. Dental schools rarely have any specific major requirements, so either a biology undergraduate degree or related undergraduate degree can help prepare you to work as a dentist.

Agricultural or Food science technicians: Agricultural or food science technicians help other scientists track data, maintain laboratory equipment, oversee food production, and analyze the quality of food products, crops, and soils. Regulatory agencies and private businesses in the food or agricultural sectors often have job openings for technicians. Successful agricultural or food science technicians often have good problem-solving and mathematical skills, and are comfortable sorting through potentially large data sets.
Content Writer: Quality control technicians typically ensure that a company's products meet the quality and effectiveness standards instituted either by a regulatory agency or the company itself. They primarily work for either pharmaceutical manufacturers or food producers. The role may involve overseeing the production or testing of materials which are purchased from outside vendors, and they often specialize in a specific area, such as research, quality assurance, or food storage.
Physician Liaisons:Physician liaisons act as intermediaries between medical staff and a hospital, or between medical staff and a health organization, such as a nursing home. Their main goal is to strengthen the relationships between the two and help them communicate quickly and effectively with each other. Physician liaisons typically have strong public speaking and organizational skills, and are comfortable working independently to adapt to changing situations in medical environments.

Regulatory agencies and private businesses in the food or agricultural sectors often have job openings for technicians. Successful agricultural or food science technicians often have good problem-solving and mathematical skills, and are comfortable sorting through potentially large data sets.
Health Educator:Utilizing their knowledge of exercise, nutrition, and disease, health educators work to educate communities and individuals about wellness and health. They typically collect and study data to look for signs of a variety of health concerns, then create informational materials and actionable training programs to help encourage healthy behaviour. Health educators often work in community centres, educational institutions, public health institutions, and private businesses, where they make use of their communication and leadership skills to educate people about complex subjects involving health and wellness.
Environmental Specialist: An environmental specialist helps to develop technology that aims to protect local or national ecosystems, or the global environment in its entirety. They typically collect and analyze environmental sample data to observe the effects of a population on the local or global environment. They may also act as an advisor for policy recommendations that involve the environment or climate.
Biologists: Biologists typically conduct a variety of experiments that involve the analysis of organic matter or organisms. There is a wide range of potential field specializations, including marine, genetic, developmental, and evolutionary biology. A biologist's career is typically heavily research-oriented, with some potential for fieldwork.
Nurse Practitioners:Nurse practitioners work both independently and in collaboration with physicians to order medical tests, diagnose health problems, and prescribe medications. Nurse practitioners can also provide preventative and primary care, and may choose to specialize in obstetric care (care related to pregnancy and childbirth), care for children, or care for people with mental illnesses. Most nursing programs require an undergraduate degree in nursing, but there are graduate-level programs which may admit those with an undergraduate degree in biology or other health science-related disciplines.
Ecologist:An ecologist studies the relationships between organisms and the environment in which they live. Their duties can include fieldwork, data collection, data analysis, and creating reports. Most ecologists focus on threatened environments or endangered species, but they may also choose to specialize in one particular environment or climate.
Physicians:Physicians (or medical doctors) treat and diagnose illnesses or injuries, record medical histories, examine patients, and prescribe medications. They also order and perform diagnostic tests, then explain the results to patients. Some medical school programs are in high demand, so it's important to fulfil more than the program's minimum requirements to help distinguish yourself from other applicants. To become a physician, applicants typically first complete an undergraduate degree, then an M.D. program from a recognized and accredited medical school, and finally spend three to seven years in a residency and internship program, depending on their specialty.
