The School of Biological Sciences provides two specialized Master of Science programs in Biology. The non-thesis M.S. in Biology caters to students seeking advanced knowledge in contemporary biology without research career aspirations. The thesis-based M.S. in Biology prepares students for technical roles or doctoral studies by offering comprehensive training in modern biology and hands-on research experience.

Molecular and cell biology studies within the School encompass these key areas:
Cellular biology of eukaryotes and prokaryotes, covering cell communication, specialization, oncology, receptor movement, and bacterial disease mechanisms. Physiological processes at molecular levels, including human disease pathways and membrane protein operations. Biophysical and structural studies of biological molecules, examining DNA, proteins, and lipid formations
Genetic mechanisms across organisms, exploring gene regulation, DNA integrity, genomic analysis, protein formation genetics, and epigenetic factors like prions. Evolutionary biology at molecular scales, including population genetics, comparative genomics, and functional evolutionary studies.
