The Master of Science in Integrated Biology is conferred by the Graduate College, with coursework administered through the UI College of Liberal Arts and Sciences. This program offers both thesis and non-thesis options (with the non-thesis track serving solely as a terminal degree). The thesis-based iBio program mandates completion of 30 graduate-level semester credits, including original research culminating in a thesis. A maximum of 9 research credits may count toward the degree.
Additional coursework is determined through collaboration with the student's advisory committee, customized to align with individual academic backgrounds and professional aspirations. While students earn credit for required courses, any classes taken to address undergraduate deficiencies do not contribute to the 30-credit graduation requirement.

Qualification Requirements
Applicants must hold a valid B.A. or B.S. from an accredited institution. They must supply official transcripts from each undergraduate and graduate institution they have attended. The Graduate Record Examination (GRE) General Test is not required for admission, but if students wish to have their results considered they must include their verbal, quantitative, and analytical writing scores.
Applicants whose first language is not English must score at least 100 (internet-based) on the Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL) and have their score sent to the Office of Admissions. International applicants who received their degrees (either bachelor's or master's) from a U.S. institution are exempt from this requirement. All international students whose first language is not English are required to take the on-campus English Proficiency Evaluation before they first enroll for classes.
Successful applicants for graduate admission typically have a g.p.a. of at least 3.00 (on a 4.00 scale) and a Graduate Record Examination (GRE) General Test score above 308 (combined verbal and quantitative), although the GRE exam is not a requirement for admission.
