How do birds navigate through urban landscapes? How do plants respond to climate change? Can the human papilloma virus, responsible for 99 percent of cervical cancers, be stopped? Can the biomarkers for serious psychiatric disorders be identified before they take hold?

At Fordham, our graduate students are in the lab and out in the field, seeking solutions to these questions and more. Our master of science program provides a unique cross-disciplinary experience that will increase your versatility, grounding you in cutting-edge molecular tools and techniques as well as systems biology. You’ll specialize in one of two tracks:

• Ecology
• Cell and Molecular Biology

With our strong emphasis on research, we have a successful record of preparing our students for doctoral work at Fordham and other competitive programs.
