Department of Biology
The Department of Biology has a thriving graduate program that offers M.S. and Ph.D. degrees. Over the last five years our graduate program has included students who have won Fulbright scholarships, NASA Space Grant fellowships, Australian Endeavour scholarships, and National Science Foundation Doctoral Dissertation Improvement Grants, and students in our program routinely place highly in the Graduate School’s Three Minute Thesis competition.
The M.S. in biological science prepares a student for various academic, industry, or government professional positions that involve freshwater biology, medicine, education, molecular genetics, ecology and conservation biology.
