UMA Graduate Bulletin 2016-2017 Plant Biology Programs, Faculty, and Courses Program Overview Accelerated (5th Year) Master of Science Program
Accelerated (5th Year) Master of Science Program
The Plant Biology Graduate Program offers the Fifth-Year Master’s Program exclusively for B.S. graduates of the university or any other of the Five Colleges. This accelerated program is open to students who have already begun undergraduate research in the lab of a Plant Biology Graduate Program faculty member before their senior year and intend to develop that project into a master’s degree. Both a thesis and non-thesis option are offered. Students who are interested in this program should meet with their academic and research advisers to discuss this option before the end of their junior year. Students are expected to complete the master’s degree approximately 15 months (including two summers and an academic year) after receiving their bachelor’s degree. |
