The Gannon Biology department houses various instrumentation used for teaching classes, laboratories and research projects. Students have the opportunity to gain hands-on experience using state-of-the-art instrumentation. The biology department utilizes three shared research laboratories and 10 classroom laboratories. In addition to the facilities, we also have a fish room, a cold room and a vivarium room.
