專業(yè)概況
在這里學什么？
The Department of Biology offers two Master's Degree Programs. Plan A (thesis option) is a program culminating in a research thesis for students interested in pursuing further advanced degrees or employment in biological research. Plan B (non-thesis option) is a program leading to a non-thesis Master's Degree and is intended as the terminal degree for students seeking careers with government agencies, or in industry, education, or other areas. Students in the Plan B program may select from one of the following three areas from which to concentrate their study: (1) Cell and Molecular Biology, (2) Ecology, Evolution, and Conservation Biology, or (3) General Biology.
Plan A (thesis program)
The student is required to complete an independent research project and a written thesis suitable for publication in a peer reviewed scientific journal. At the end of the student's research program and following acceptance of the written thesis by the Faculty Advisor and Advisory Committee, the student will make a public presentation of the thesis research. Following the public presentation, the student's Advisory Committee will administer and judge a final oral examination that serves as defense of the candidate's thesis, and an examination of the student's general knowledge.
A minimum of 30 graduate credits in biology or related fields must be completed with an average grade of B or better, with not less than 21 credits to be earned in residence at UNR. At least 18 credits must be in 700-level courses, including six thesis credits. Course selection will be determined in consultation with the Faculty Advisor and Advisory Committee.
Plan B (non-thesis program)
A minimum of 32 semester graduate credits in biology or a related discipline must be completed with an average grade of B or better, with not less than 23 credits to be earned in residence at UNR. At least 15 credits must be in 700-level courses. Course selection will be determined in consultation with the Faculty Advisor and Advisory Committee. A research thesis is not required, but a scholarly paper must be prepared. The paper may be in the form of a scholarly review, analysis, and synthesis of a current topic in biology, or may be presented as a grant proposal in a format appropriate to a specific funding agency.
