Bioscience is a wide swatch of the scientific disciplines, from cell biology to zoology, the bioscience field is full of potential for anyone who is enthusiastic about making new discoveries and improving upon old standards of how science works.  For several decades, advancements have been made in biosciences, but there have not been enough science majors to fill the shoes of those retiring out of the field.  Fresh minds are needed to replenish the laboratories with new talent.  The United States government may be able to help you with college expenses, too, if  you major in one of the fields currently under represented.
