生物化学专业研究硕士

生物化学研究生课程可以取得MPS或MS学位。学生可以选择生物医学研究领域，例如细胞调节系统，蛋白质生物化学，分子免疫学，细胞和分子毒理学，微生物学，生物信息学和基因组学。可以以竞争的方式获得经济援助，主要是通过研究生教学补助金的形式。还提供研究助学金和大学研究金。教职工积极参与联邦一级支持的研究。被生物化学研究生课程录取的学生，还可以在微生物学下列出的教师，大学其他部门的许多实验室，巴港的杰克逊实验室，波特兰的缅因州医学中心研究所或通过合作机构安排和副教职员工。（除了下面列出的位于缅因州大学的教职人员之外
The M.P.S., Master of Professional Studies, is a non-thesis Master's degree. M.P.S. students pursue course work, attend seminars, and complete a small research project culminating in a defense, at a pace and level appropriate to their outside schedules and backgrounds. The M.P.S. degree is primarily for active professionals in biological and health-related sciences who aim to earn a degree part-time OR secondary school teachers OR individuals lacking previous biomedical research experience who are interested in gaining some research experience and graduate training OR individuals who need catch-up on BMMB-related coursework before pursuing higher education or careers in biochemistry, microbiology, or molecular biology. Because M.P.S. students are not completing a thesis and thus are not substantially aiding the specific aims of a grant, they are not eligible for TA, RA, or fellowship financial support, so MPS students must self-support.<br><br>Graduate studies in Biochemistry can lead to an MPS or MS degree. Students may choose from biomedical research areas such as cell regulatory systems, protein biochemistry, molecular immunology, cellular and molecular toxicology, microbiology, bioinformatics, and genomics. Financial aid is available on a competitive basis, primarily in the form of graduate teaching assistantships. Research assistantships and University fellowships are also available. Faculty members are actively involved in research that is supported at the federal level. Students admitted to the graduate program in Biochemistry may also carry out their research with faculty listed under Microbiology, in a number of laboratories in other departments at the University, the Jackson Laboratory in Bar Harbor, the Maine Medical Center Research Institute in Portland, or through cooperative institutional arrangements and Associate faculty or staff. (In addition to the University of Maine-based faculty listed below, several faculty at Jackson Laboratory, MMCRI, etc, mentor research students in this degree program.)
