A school is a large organizational structure which can contain various departments and divisions. The departments and divisions should be listed in the departments and divisions section. The school page itself should not contain many learning resources. The school page can contain some projects for developing learning resources, but most learning resources are linked to from specialized portals in the "Topic:" namespace. The School of Biology is for coordinating the activity of Wikiversity participants who edit the biology-related pages of Wikiversity.
Divisions and Departments
Divisions and Departments of the School exist on pages in "topic" namespace. Start the name of departments with the "Topic:" prefix; departments reside in the Topic: namespace. Departments and divisions link to learning materials and learning projects. Divisions can link subdivisions or to departments. For more information on schools, divisions and departments look at the Naming Conventions. Note: Some of the subject areas listed below may still have associated pages at Wikibooks that still need to be imported to Wikiversity. If you do not see what you are looking for, feel free to start a new Learning Project. (List topics alphabetically)
- Agriculture and Horticulture - Agronomy, crop protection, crop science, pests and diseases, soil science, weed control.
- Division of Human Biology - Human diseases, human evolution, the human brain and behavior.
- Animal Physiology
- Biochemistry
- Bioinformatics
- Cell Biology - explorations of cells as fundamental components of organisms.
- Ecology
- Ethology
