Graduate Studies in Biology

The Department of Biology is committed to graduate training of the highest quality. Its programs are sufficiently flexible to permit training in diverse research areas and to allow for the pursuit of interdisciplinary research programs. Graduate programs leading to either the M.S. or Ph.D. degree are offered in a wide variety of disciplines within the areas of biochemistry, developmental biology, genetics, molecular and cellular biology, neuroscience, ecology, and evolution.

The Department currently averages 40 students. About 75 percent of the students enroll directly following their undergraduate work; others come with a master's degree earned elsewhere. Virtually all departmental graduate students are supported by full tuition scholarships, as well as teaching assistantships, research assistantships, or fellowships.
