Department of Biology
The Department of Biology offers two graduate Certificate Programs for students who initially do not wish to pursue the full Master's degree. These programs are suitable for either full- or part-time students, and include coursework primarily in one of two areas - Cell, Molecular, and Developmental Biology or Ecology, Evolution and Organismal Biology. Qualified students in a certificate program may also apply for acceptance to either the M.A. or the M.S. degree programs.
