Graduates of the program, regardless of their level of prior technical education, will have a greater grasp of the technologies currently in use in the biotechnology industry. They will understand the regulatory role of federal and state governmental agencies as well as international bodies and professional groups. They will also gain a deeper understanding of the “business of biotechnology,” including financial, strategic, and human resource management in the industry. Finally, graduates of the MS in biotechnology studies will have increased knowledge of bioinformatics. Overview The program leads to an MS in biotechnology studies. The curriculum requires 36 credits of coursework and is divided into a 24-credit core and 12 credits of electives. A specialty track in bioinformatics practice is available. Program Requirements Some background in biology is recommended. Decision-Pending Status Students may enroll in BIOT 640 before UMUC has received the official transcript from the bachelor’s-degree-granting institution. Students must receive an admission decision before subsequent enrollments. Formats/Locations Classes in the MS in biotechnology studies are offered online and at College Park and the Shady Grove Center. Students should check the current Graduate Schedule of Classes to determine when courses will be offered at specific locations. | 52 | 2003–2004 Graduate Catalog
