Bachelor's Degree
The Master of Science (M.S.) in Biological Sciences is a research-focused graduate program featuring a rigorous mix of required and elective courses. In their initial year, students engage in specialized coursework aligned with their academic interests. The program includes two lab rotations in the first semester, leading to the selection of a research lab and the development of a thesis project.
Compared to Ph.D. research, the M.S. in Biology requires a more limited scope of study, allowing students to graduate within two years. This degree opens doors to various career opportunities in industry, scientific research, and teaching. Additionally, the M.S. in Biology serves as strong foundation for pursuing further graduate studies.
