Master of Science in Biology - Thesis
關於課程
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.

The GRE may be waived for applicants with a M.D. from a U.S. institution. EITHER a Major within biological sciences department or interdisciplinary areas of chemistry, biochemistry, nanotechnology, biophysics, bioengineering, biotechnology, kinesiology, and health sciences OR a minimum of 24 hours in within biological sciences department or interdisciplinary areas of chemistry, biochemistry, nanotechnology, biophysics, bioengineering, biotechnology, kinesiology, and health sciences which must include at least one course in each of the areas of genetics, physiology, and cell/molecular biology. Previous course work should include at least one course in genetics, physiology, and cell/molecular biology. Highly competitive applicants will have one year each of general chemistry, organic chemistry, physics, and college level mathematics. A Personal Statement (double spaced, limit to 2 pages) which clearly addresses: (1) why the applicant wishes to pursue a thesis-based Master's degree, (2) why a thesis-based Master's degree versus another type of graduate certificate or degree option is congruent with professional goals, (3) why the applicant is interested in this specific UNC Charlotte program, and (4) the area of research or faculty of interest to the applicant as potential major advisors. Applicants are strongly encouraged to contact any specific faculty members which whom they would be particularly interested in working with for thesis research. A list of graduate program faculty may be viewed here on our website. The Graduate School requires a score of at least 83 on the Internet-based, 220 on the computer-based, or 557 on the paper based Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL), or a minimum overall band score of 6.5 on the IELTS, for applicants whose native language is not English. The Department of Biological Sciences prefers a TOEFL score of at least 100. In addition, these students will be required to be evaluated by the English Language Training Institute at UNC Charlotte prior to the beginning of the first semester of study for determination of eligibility to hold a teaching assistantship at UNC Charlotte.
