Department of Biological Sciences
The Biology Graduate Program prepares enlightened, responsible, and productive scientists with essential skills, a deep understanding of their discipline, respect for diversity, and the ability to think critically and communicate clearly.
We offer a Master of Science in Biology degree; please note that we do not offer a Ph.D. degree. Our program, which typically requires two years, provides advanced training and expertise in biology through coursework, research, and a strong academic environment.
Our graduates go on to be:
• Biomedical researchers in academic, government, and industrial labs
• Technicians in research labs
• Field biologists in federal, state, local, and tribal agencies
• Biologists with environmental and other consulting firms
• Educators at K-12 schools and community colleges
• Doctorates in the sciences (Ph.D.) and professional fields (e.g., M.D., DVM, and other advanced medical degrees)
