This project is establishing a Center to address pressing needs in the undergraduate program at different curricular levels. As a result, General Biology for majors now addresses entry-level molecular biology concepts in their laboratory. Molecular biology technologies are also being added to core courses such as cell biology, genetics, and immunology. The Biotechnology Center provides a well-equipped and centralized laboratory that is shared by students in several courses. The Biotechnology Center is also a valuable resource for undergraduate students pursuing independent research projects. Finally, the Center enhances the department's teacher training program by providing a nucleus for summer courses in biotechnology for pre-service and high school teachers.

该项目正在建立一个中心，以满足不同课程级别本科课程的迫切需求。 因此，专业的普通生物学现在在实验室中讨论入门级分子生物学概念。分子生物学技术也被添加到细胞生物学、遗传学和免疫学等核心课程中。生物技术中心提供设备齐全的集中实验室，由多个课程的学生共享。生物技术中心也是追求独立研究项目的本科生的宝贵资源。最后，该中心通过为职前教师和高中教师提供生物技术暑期课程的核心，加强了该系的教师培训计划。
