| Biological
Sciences
The department offers
a M.S. and Ph.D. degree in both Biochemistry and
Biological Sciences.
Biochemistry
concentrates
on the many disciplines intrinsic to Biochemistry
and Molecular Biology.

 |
| Biological
Sciences
emphasizes modern interdisciplinary
approaches to biology in areas such as bioinformatics,
systematics, ecology, cell biology, and physiology;
and also the traditional organism based approaches
such as botany, microbiology and zoology.

The department
offers a M.S. and Ph.D. degree in Chemistry.In
general, students who have earned the equivalent
of a Bachelor's degree in Chemistry are eligible
to apply. However, students from the Republic
of India and the People's Republic of China must

You may view an
outline of the Ph.D.
Program, learn about financial
assistance and course
offerings, and read brief descriptions
of the research interests of each graduate
faculty member.
The focus areas of
the research-active tenure-track faculty are as
follows: Analytical, Macromolecular, Inorganic,
Organic and Physical. A number of these faculty
members have interdisciplinary interests in fields
such as biophysical, bioorganic, bioinorganic,
and organometallic chemistry. There is an active
Macromolecular Studies Group that contains faculty
from Chemistry, Chemical Engineering, Biochemistry
and Physics.

Computer
Science
The
department offers a M.S. degree in Systems Science
and a Ph.D. degree in Computer Science.The entrance
requirement to the M.S. program of our department
is a bachelor's degree in a systems-related area
from an accredited college or university.

Gifted students who have not satisfied these requirements
may be admitted to the program on probation provided
that the deficiencies are successfully made up
(usually by Pass/Fail) by the end of the first
semester in the program. Such students might require
more than the usual amount of time necessary to
satisfy the degree requirements.
Master's
Program
The curriculum provides for
graduate study in such core topics as theory of
computing, computer science principles, data management
and software systems development, visualization
and graphics, and high performance computing.
In addition, the student may choose any systems-related
area for specialization and application of the
techniques from these core areas.
Doctoral
Program
The curriculum provides for
graduate study in several areas of computer science
including algorithms, computer architecture, artificial
intelligence, theoretical computer science, software
engineering, information retrieval, security,
grid computing, networks, database management,
operating systems, high performance computing,
robotics, scientific computation, programming
languages, and compilers.
