专业概况

In the biology and society concentration of the MS program in biology, students examine topics where biology intersects with society.

The concentration tailors individual plans of study to individual needs and interests, with a solid grounding in the life and related sciences and with a rigorous analytical and interdisciplinary education. The program offers suggested courses for those wishing to focus on these areas: bioethics, policy and law; biology education research; ecology, economics and ethics of the environment; and history and philosophy of science.

Bioethics, policy and law: Students are trained in the pressing moral, policy and legal issues raised by the biosciences and biomedicine and in the disciplinary methods necessary to address these issues.

Biology education research: This focuses on using education research to identify ways to improve undergraduate biology education broadly.

Ecology, economics and ethics of the environment: This area trains students in the theory and empirical methods for understanding, analyzing and shaping policy for coupled human-natural systems.

History and philosophy of science: Students are trained in the conceptual foundations of science, especially the epistemological and methodological assumptions that shape science and its progress.

Career Opportunities

A Master of Science in biology and society provides strong preparation for academic careers, from community colleges to research universities. The skills and knowledge obtained in this program are also valuable for government careers in federal and state agencies responsible for management and conservation and for careers in industry and nongovernmental organizations.
