MASTER OF SCIENCE IN BIOLOGY

The MS in Biology will equip graduates to enter professions within the science community and contribute through research, teaching, writing, and other avenues – all through the lens of Scripture.

Our educational goal, no matter what biological discipline our students choose to study, is that they will be competent biologists who represent the God of Creation well. The Master of Science in Biology program will include courses from a research curriculum, specific biology content areas—physiology, molecular and cellular biology, and organismal biology—departmental seminars and institutional requirements.

Students who apply to the Master of Science in Biology program will be evaluated based on undergraduate GPA (both overall and science/math specific), previous coursework, GRE scores, a personal statement, and letters of recommendation.

The Master of Science in Biology program requires 42 credits, including courses from a research curriculum, specific biology content areas — physiology, molecular and cellular biology, and organismal biology — departmental seminars, and institutional requirements. This degree program will equip graduates to enter professions within the science community and contribute through research, teaching, writing, and other avenues — all through the lens of Scripture and within the context of a Biblical worldview.
