Students pursuing a Master of Science (M.S.) in Biology can select between two academic pathways. They may opt for a thesis-based research program or choose the non-thesis alternative. Typically, full-time students complete the M.S. degree in 1.5 to 2 years, though part-time enrollment is also available. Evening classes are predominantly scheduled to accommodate working professionals.
This program offers the flexibility to specialize through concentrations—curated sets of interconnected Biology and related courses. These focus areas are entirely optional, as the required coursework fits within the standard 36-credit non-thesis curriculum without requiring additional credits.
