Program Description
The School of Biological Sciences offers MS and
Ph.D. degree programs in Botany and Zoology
with a non-thesis MS option in Biology. We
provide research specialties in ecology and
evolution, physiology, systematics, and
molecular biology for plant and animal systems.
A major strength of our program is the
facilities available to graduate students for
their research. For example students have
access to extensive support facilities
including an electron microscope center,
herbarium, natural history museum, vivarium,
greenhouses, and growth chambers. Off campus,
our graduate students may utilize several field
research sites such as the Hudson Biological
Reserve at Smoot Hill and Meyers Point Field
Station.
All of our graduate students are fully-funded;
most receive teaching assistantships, and some
receive research assistantships and
fellowships. A major focus for the faculty in
our school is graduate research and we welcome
you to directly contact individual faculty
members or direct your questions to the
graduate secretary within the School of
Biological Sciences
