The BS Biology (Medical Biology) students of the Biology Department embarked on an enriching field study in Sikyop, Purok Lawlawon, Barangay Rogongon, Iligan City, engaging in firsthand exploration of the area’s diverse ecological systems and natural environment.

The field activity provided students with meaningful opportunities to apply ecological concepts beyond the classroom through quadrat sampling, forest ecology assessment, and direct observation of organisms within their natural habitats. These activities strengthened their understanding of biodiversity, ecological relationships, habitat dynamics, and the factors that contribute to the stability and sustainability of natural ecosystems.

Through experiential and field-based learning, students gained a deeper appreciation of the complexity and interconnectedness of ecological systems. The experience also emphasized the importance of scientific observation, environmental awareness, and responsible stewardship in understanding and conserving biodiversity.

The Biology Department extends its sincere appreciation to the faculty-in-charged, accompanying instructors and school nurse for their guidance, supervision, and support throughout the field study. Their assistance contributed significantly to ensuring a meaningful, organized, and safe learning experience for all students.

More than an academic exercise, the field study served as an opportunity for students to connect theoretical knowledge with actual ecological environments, reinforcing the value of inquiry, observation, and environmental responsibility in the study of life.
