生物科学文学硕士（干细胞）

生物科学的研究生课程可授予文学硕士学位（MA）或理学硕士学位（MS），并为学生提供机会接受高级培训并从事特定生物学领域的独立研究。它允许学生将其学历提升到博士学位课程或在教学，实验室工作或田野调查中的专业提升的资格。硕士学位要求完成作为助学金计划的项目，除非学生处于需要实习项目报告的干细胞集中课程中。理学硕士课程要求完成一篇涉及生态，进化与保护以及分子和细胞生物学的论文，以便在这些领域提供高级培训和研究经验。<br> <br>所有学生都必须完成一个项目或涉及现场，实验室或文献研究的论文。该项目或论文研究可
The graduate programs in Biological Sciences lead to either a Master of Arts (MA) or a Master of Science (MS) degree and provides an opportunity for students to receive advanced training and to pursue independent investigations in particular fields of biology. It allows students to upgrade their qualifications for educational advancement to doctoral programs or for professional advancement in teaching, laboratory work, or fieldwork. The MA degree requires the completion of a project which is a Grant Proposal, unless the student is in the Stem Cell Concentration which requires an Internship Project Report. The MS degree requires completion of a thesis which has concentrations in Ecology, Evolution and Conservation and in Molecular and Cellular Biology so as to provide advanced training and research experience in these fields.<br><br>All students are required to complete a project or thesis involving field, laboratory, or literature research. The project or thesis research may be conducted on campus with a biology faculty member or at an off-campus location. In either case, the student's research must make a new contribution to the field of biology. If the research is conducted off campus, a biology faculty member must be identified as the student's graduate advisor. Following admission to the program, students are advised by a temporary graduate advisor or by the faculty member who has agreed to supervise the student in their project/thesis research. Students should plan their academic programs in consultation with a graduate advisor as early as possible, preferably prior to enrollment in the program.
