Nutrition

The Life Sciences program at Bellevue College is composed of courses in biology, botany, and nutrition that prepares students in completing an Associate of Science transfer degree in Science Track 1: Biological, Environmental/Resources, Chemistry, Earth Sciences, AS. From the microscopic world of bacteria to global issues like climate change, studies in life sciences lead to fulfilling careers where you can have a direct impact on your community and the natural world. Some of these careers in life science include becoming a laboratory technician, biologist, or nutritionist. Our program also provides foundational courses in areas such as general biology, botany, human biology, microbiology, nutrition, and anatomy & physiology that prepares our students for biology-related majors and allied health programs such as nursing, radiation therapy and diagnostic ultrasound.

Oceanography

Oceanography is the study of the ocean and all of its living and non-living components. Oceanography as we know it today consists of several distinct but related sub-disciplines, including Geological Oceanography, Chemical Oceanography, Physical Oceanography, and Biological Oceanography. Marine Engineering and Marine Resource Management (including fisheries) are also often included under the marine sciences umbrella. Some of the most important discoveries and developments in oceanography have been the result of integrated, multidisciplinary studies involving geologists, chemists, biologists, physical oceanographers, and engineers. At Bellevue College, Oceanography is one of five sciences that comprise our Earth and Space Sciences Program (the others are Astronomy, Geology, Environmental Science, and Meteorology).
