Master of Science [M.S] [Biological Science] From University of Denver

A major strength of the program is the emphasis on research beginning in the first year. Nearly all students publish their work in a scientific journal. A student who completes the degree is in a strong position to pursue a range of postgraduate opportunities, including a career in a biotech, academic or government lab or agency, or continued studies in a professional or PhD program.

In consultation with the adviser and Thesis Committee, the student develops a plan for independent research that culminates with a written thesis, public seminar and oral thesis defense.
