Florida Atlantic University's Biology Department provides graduate education opportunities for life science enthusiasts, offering two Master's degrees (with four specialization paths) and one Ph.D. program (featuring one core curriculum and two focus areas). These programs are designed to align with each student's academic goals.
The Department of Biological Sciences collaborates in an interdisciplinary Master's program focused on Environmental Science training. This initiative involves all departments within the Charles E. Schmidt College of Science and Dorothy F. Schmidt College of Arts and Letters, along with several other FAU colleges.
Students can now apply for a newly launched interdisciplinary Master's program in Marine Science. This College of Science offering is a joint venture between the Biological Sciences Department and FAU's Harbor Branch Oceanographic Institute. Prospective marine science graduate students may also engage in marine research through existing Biology and Environmental Science Master's programs. Additional details are available in the Degree Programs section below.
