<p>What are some good biology programs, with the exception of liberal arts schools?</p>
<p>By middle of the road I mean schools like (Indiana-Bloomington, Va Tech, Clemson...you know schools like that). And don't be funny and include Ivy league schools, I am so sick of people talking about them! (not because there is anything wrong with it, by for my sake I want people to be talking about less competitive schools!)</p>
<p>I am not sure I know what you mean by "middle of road". I can only assume you mean in terms of selectivity, not quality. Below is a list of universities that are anywhere from good to excellent but that have incredible Biology programs. </p>
<p>University of California-Davis (very good)
University of California-San Diego (excellent)
University of Colorado-Boulder (very good)
University of Illinois-Urbana Champaign (very good)
University of Washington (very good)
University of Wisconsin-Madison (excellent)</p>
<p>Other good programs:
Indiana University-Bloomington
Michigan State University
Pennsylvania State University-University Park
University of Arizona
Unibersity of California-Irvine
University of Minnesota-Twin Cities
University of Texas-Austin</p>
<p>Clemson- very strong in zoology
Miami (Ohio)- also very strong in zoology
NC State- strong in zoology, genetics, entomology, ecology
UT Austin- strong in most areas
UNC Wilmington- strong in marine biology
UC San Diego- strong in marine biology
UC Davis- strong in agriculture, ecology, and pre-vet
UC Riverside- strong in plant science and entomology
SUNY Stony Brook- strong in biochemistry
Wisconsin- strong in most areas, especially cell biology
Georgia- strong in ecology/zoology and genetics
Penn State- strong in most areas, especially molec. bio and genetics
Rutgers- strong in most areas
Michigan- strong in most areas, but ecology/evolution and plant science best
Wisconsin- strong in molecular biology and microbiology
Washington- strong in most areas of biology</p>
<p>There's probably a lot more, but these were the ones I could think of right away.</p>
