Program Overview

The Plant Biology Graduate Group (PBGG) offers M.S. and Ph.D. degree programs intended to prepare students for careers in teaching and research in academic, governmental, or industrial laboratories.   The graduate curriculum involves both a broad overview of the discipline as well as in-depth study and research in one of four areas of specialization: Cell and Developmental Biology; Systematics and Evolutionary Biology; Environmental and Integrative Biology; and Molecular Biology, Biochemistry, and Genomics.  For the student interested in plant breeding, these areas of specialization permit individual study and research into such relevant fields as anatomy, biochemistry, cell biology, cytology, developmental biology, molecular biology, morphology, physiology, population biology, and systematics.  The PBGG also now offers a designated emphasis in Biotechnology.
