What biology- related careers exist?
I'm interested in biology, and would ideally like a job that encompasses this interest. I also plan to horseback ride competitively after college, and need relatively flexible hours to do so. Are there any biology- related professions that will give me the flexibility and salary to continue my horseback riding (eventing) at a high level? If not, what other professions exist that will allow me to continue my sport? I currently have a 5.1 GPA and take almost all AP classes.

Hello Amanda,
You can parley your interest in biology and love for horses perhaps in the field of veterinary medicine or as a veterinary technician.

There are biology related careers that exist. I suggest you look them up in the OOH (Occupational Outlook Handbook). This book is from the US Dept. of Labor and can give you the following information: Titles, salaries, job descriptions, related jobs in field, and most important career trends (is this a good or bad field to go into) it will give you negative or positive percentage growth in each field you look up.
What Can You Do with a Major In website (Google this) this will give you examples of things you do with a Biology degree as well as particular websites where you can find job opportunities.
