Topics in Neuromuscular Disease 2 s.h. If a student wishes to take an advanced course in another Department in lieu of one of the regular Departmental electives, the course must be a 200-level course, at least 2 s.h. credit, must receive a letter grade and it must be relevant to the Biological Sciences. All graduate students are required
to attend the weekly departmental and workshop seminars. English as a Second Language
courses may be required for foreign students with marginal language
proficiency as determined by the University and/or Department. The M.S. degree WITH or
WITHOUT thesis requires 30 semester hours of graduate credit Required of all M.S. students 072:153 Graduate Physiology 4 s.h. 156:201 Principles in Molecular Cell Biology 4 s.h. 156:265 Bioscience Seminar (first semester of the first year) 1 s.h. 156:225 Bioscience Seminar (second semester of the first year) 1 s.h. 072:225 Cell Biology II 3 s.h. *142:215 Molecular Biology of Gene Expression (Molecular route) 3 s.h. or *132:180 Fundamental Neuroscience 4 s.h. 072:240 Physiology Workshop 1 s.h. 072:270 Responsible Conduct of Research 1 s.h. 072:302 Research in Physiology
and Biophysics (as required) * Each student must take the
required course for the Molecular path (Molecular Biology of Gene Expression)
or the Neuro path (Fundamental Neuroscience). Two additional elective courses are required for a total of 6 s.h. Courses must be approved by
the Director of Graduate Studies. The Master’s student must
maintain a grade point of 2.75 while enrolled in the program. Additional Requirements: M.S. with Thesis—After
the thesis is accepted by the thesis committee, the candidate must pass
an oral examination on the research described in the thesis on related
subjects. M.S. without Thesis—A
library research report must be prepared and the student must pass a
written examination covering the area of the research report and the
graduate program in Physiology. Approved Electives:
