Master of Science (M.S.) in either Biological Sciences or Marine Sciences

Our M.S programs offer post-baccalaureate training to students interested in a wide variety of biological topics.  The programs feature a classroom curriculum that provides a strong theoretical background and also focuses on the research experience.  Students will conduct original research and prepare a thesis on any of a variety of topics selected by consultation with our faculty.

Program Goals

  • Provide a knowledge base in the biological sciences that is deeper than the typical undergraduate experience.
  • Foster participation in the production of biological knowledge through high quality research.
  • Instill outstanding research skills and a working knowledge of the scientific method by participation in high-quality research.
  • Develop outstanding scientific communication skills through written and oral presentations.
