The MS in Biology is a research-intensive program that will prepare you for a variety of careers in the life sciences or to pursue further graduate study. With an emphasis on experiential learning, this hands-on program will give you experience in scientific methods through immersion in all aspects of scientific research, including the formulation of testable hypotheses, experimental design, data collection and analysis, and dissemination of results as written articles and oral presentations.
In this program, you will conduct your own independent research and have access to state-of-the-art equipment in multiple research laboratories. Thanks to our small classes and collegial atmosphere, you will benefit from individual attention and one-on-one mentorship from our experienced and dynamic faculty.
