The Master of Science (MS) program in Molecular Genetics and Genomics (MGG) provides a comprehensive curriculum focused on modern genetics, genomics, and human biology through both theoretical and laboratory-based learning. The MGG MS program offers two tracks: Plan A (which mandates a research thesis) and Plan B (requiring an essay instead). Plan B was introduced to accommodate students who may not need extensive lab experience, such as those pursuing careers in education or seeking professional advancement. In select instances, completing either Plan A or Plan B may help qualified students transition into our PhD program.
