is Biology at Stanford a "techie" major?

I keep reading about how Stanford students are either techie (science, math, engineering),
or fuzzie (humanities, social sciences). What is biology, specifically the Human Biology major considered to be? I understand its a science, but it doesnt seem to be the math-computer nerd “techie” kind of science. I also understand it contains a lot of sociology and psychology, so part of the major must be social science oriented as well…
