Lecturer Catherine Robles joins the ranks of fellow CSUB alumni who have returned to the university to teach. Originally from Taft, Robles first earned associate degrees in mathematics and science at Taft College before transferring to CSUB, where she earned bachelor’s degree in biology, with a minor in chemistry, and her master’s degree in biology.
Robles will teach the Perspectives in Biology course as well as a lab section of integrated life science.
“I feel very fortunate to join the CSUB faculty,” Robles said. “I wanted to work here because I had such a great experience as an undergraduate and graduate student and am excited to share biology with others.”
In her free time, Robles enjoys baking, watching movies, listening to music, reading novels and manga and going for walks with her family.
