The Master of Science in Biology program at the College of Sciences, Georgia Institute of Technology offers two tracks: a non-thesis and a thesis option. The non-thesis route is designed for students interested in advanced training in a specific area of modern biology, while the thesis track is intended for those seeking a comprehensive background in modern biology and research experience, often as preparation for doctoral studies or various biology-related career paths. The program requires 36 credit hours distributed across graduate-level biology courses and seminars, with additional research experience for thesis students. Areas of concentration include ecology, evolution and behavior, molecular and cell biology, computational biology, and bioinformatics. Students benefit from rigorous coursework, access to broad research opportunities, and faculty mentoring. Graduates are equipped for careers in industry, academia, or to pursue advanced degrees. 来源： https://cos.gatech.edu/graduate-studies-biological-sciences
