Department of Biological Science
The Thesis Masters of Science (MS) degree involves advanced graduate classes in Biology and the opportunity to make a substantial, focused research contribution in the laboratory of a Biology faculty member who serves as the student's supervisor. Not all areas and faculty of the Department accept MS students, so be sure to review the program descriptions and contact faculty members if you are interested in pursuing the MS only.
The Course-Type Master of Science (MS) degree is a mechanism of study for students preparing to apply for professional school, or for mid-career professionals looking for an additional graduate credential while still working. The requirements of the Course-Type MS degree can generally be completed in eighteen months to two years.
