General requirements

A student wishing to obtain a MS in Integrative Biological Diversity must hold a baccalaureate degree in biology, environmental science, or related program. The program welcomes students from diverse educational backgrounds (including non-science majors) who have experience or have completed previous coursework in biodiversity.

The applicant should have an undergraduate cumulative average of at least 3.0 on a GPA scale of 1 – 4 or a recommendation from the graduate program coordinator. Prospective students should submit all undergraduate transcripts and a 500 word essay explaining why they would like to join the program.

Students can enroll full-time or part-time, but full-time students who successfully complete the stewardship seminar will be given funding priority for Graduate Assistantships (GA), Teaching Assistant Fellowships (TAF) and/or grant-funded training fellowships.
