Biology at Boston University is a dynamic, integrative department spanning the full spectrum of the life sciences—from molecular biology to ecology and conservation. Our students gain both a broad foundation and the opportunity to pursue focused study in areas of their interest, supported by world-class faculty and hands-on research experiences in the lab and field.
On April 8, join us in supporting the Biology Department on Giving Day—BU’s largest fundraising event of the year—and help prepare the next generation of scientists to tackle global challenges.
Your gift will enhance student research, fieldwork, and lab training, equipping them for impactful careers in health, biotechnology, environmental science, and beyond. Thank you for helping us cultivate scientific discovery and meaningful change.
Below are just a few examples of the kind of tangible impact your gift could make:
- $25 – Field notebook/sampling supplies for a lab or field exercise
- $250 – A week of reagents/consumables for an undergraduate research project
- $1,000 – Support for a student’s summer research experience (or portion thereof)
