生物学理学硕士-神经科学与行为

神经科学与行为焦点小组的成员对有机形式和功能感兴趣。研究兴趣涉及广泛的问题，但强调行为的机械分析。该小组的一个特殊优势是教师对神经行为学（自然发生的动物行为的神经基础）的普遍兴趣。该学院专门研究化学感受，声学和化学交流，运动，社交昆虫和生物钟。焦点小组的教职员工在电生理学，声学和超声记录，运动学，肌电图，神经解剖学，共聚焦显微镜，电子显微镜和钙成像等技术方面提供专业知识。
The non-thesis M.S. in Biology degree program in the Department of Biological Sciences is designed for students who wish to pursue advanced studies in professional and graduate school or various vocational opportunities in biological sciences and related areas. The non-thesis track is designed for students whose career goals require graduate education, but not formal research experience, such as teaching at the community college/regional college level. The program provides the opportunity for broad training as well as specialization in areas of particular interest through the Molecular, Cellular and Developmental Biology (MCD) concentration and the Ecology, Evolution and Environmental Biology (E3B) concentration. Students should consult with their major advisor and Supervisory Committee when choosing a concentration and selecting a plan of study.<br>The Master's of Science in Biology program provides the opportunity for broad training in a variety of biological areas as well as specialization in areas of particular interest to the student. The Department offers a thesis and a non-thesis track within the degree. The thesis track is designed for students whose career goals require formal research training. The non-thesis track is designed for students whose career goals require graduate education, but not formal research experience, such as teaching at the community college/regional college level. The program provides the opportunity for broad training as well as specialization in areas of particular interest through the Molecular, Cellular and Developmental Biology (MCD) concentration and the Ecology, Evolution and Environmental Biology (E3B) concentration. Students in the Ph.D. and M.S. programs have the opportunity to conduct graduate research under the co-direction of a Biology faculty member and select faculty at the Carolina's Medical Center in Charlotte.
