Program Purpose
The M.S. in Physiology and Developmental Biology will prepare students for subsequent training elsewhere at the doctoral level with eventual entrance into academic positions in teaching and/or research. It will prepare students who choose to use this degree to enter a career teaching biology at the junior college level. It will enhance the competitiveness of students who apply for admission to professional schools.

These goals are consistent with the aim of BYU to provide graduate students with a program that offers greater competency than undergraduate programs. The program will help students achieve excellence in, and contribute original insights to, their discipline. It will also prepare them to enter the workforce or pursue further training.

Expected Learning Outcomes
1. Demonstrate depth and breadth of knowledge of physiology or developmental biology concepts and mechanisms beyond the undergraduate level.
2. Critically evaluate current literature in the discipline and make effective oral and written presentations.
3. Successfully apply the scientific method by generating a hypothesis, testing the hypothesis through personal research that includes appropriate controls, and formulating defensible conclusions.
4. Work independently and think for oneself.
