Course Overview

Biology

Transport your students to a virtual space where they explore complex biological processes in ways traditional labs simply cannot offer. Walk through a giant cell to observe mitosis and meiosis in real-time. Explore a biodome that mirrors ecosystems across the globe. These simulations reinforce core concepts, allowing students to grasp material faster and with greater retention.

Increased Understanding
and Retention

“(The students) just love it. They embrace it, spend a lot of time here, and they want to come back and do the labs over and over again. They also help each other in the environment, and that to me is a beautiful thing.”
— Michele Yeargain, Department of Biology, University of Central Florida
“This was an awesome way to learn the labs. A lot of the time I struggle to understand the processes in biology because I simply can’t imagine it. This method was a great way to resolve that problem.”
— UniVirtual Biology Student, Spring 2025
