Overview of Biotechnology Graduate Program

UHCL The graduate plan in Biotechnology leads to the master of science (M.S.) degree. In addition to satisfying admission requirements of the University and SCE (e.g., transcripts and GRE scores), applicants for the M.S. in the Biotechnology program should have completed a bachelor's degree in biology or a related discipline. All applicants must submit two letters of recommendation directed to the chairperson of the admissions committee for the M.S. in Biotechnology. Upon acceptance to the M.S. in Biotechnology, a student must identify the concentration to be pursued.

Applicants should have completed the appropriate foundation course work. Applicants missing certain required courses in their undergraduate preparation, but who meet the minimum university standards for admission, may be admitted on condition that they will complete specific undergraduate foundation courses for full admission to the program. If additional coursework is required to meet prerequisites for courses in a concentration area, students may enroll in these after admittance to the program.

Courses listed as foundation courses on the CPS for either the core or concentration area will not apply to the credit hours required for the M.S. degree. Students requiring significant prerequisite or foundation coursework should anticipate an extended time commitment for earning the graduate degree.
