Evening Graduate Program in Biology

The faculty of the Department of Biology recognizes that the field of biology is constantly expanding and changing. Professional biologists and educators cannot always complete graduate degree programs that require attendance of daytime courses. To provide for the continuing education needs of these persons, the Department of Biology offers an Evening Studies program. Each semester at least one graduate-level course in biology will be offered after 5:00 p.m. For the most part, the course (or courses) offered will involve laboratory instruction; consequently, the course (or courses) will be offered on a two-night per week schedule (either a Monday/Wednesday or a Tuesday/Thursday). If more than one course is offered in a given semester, then, generally, the classes will be scheduled so as not to conflict with each other. A five-year rotation schedule for graduate biology courses has been prepared, allowing students to complete the non-thesis M.S. degree in Biology without day classes.
