The Master of Science is the highest degree awarded by the Biology department. It reflects the range and depth of biology sub-disciplines and broadens students’ horizons through both coursework and original scientific research.

Graduate research culminates in an original thesis or completion of an exhaustive work of a scholarly nature. Students must consult with their graduate academic advisor in Biology before developing their program.

We have two-degree pathway options: fully online MS in Biology (36 credits) and thesis-based MS in Biology (30 credits – residential/hybrid program).
