Program Learning Outcomes for the MS Degree in the field of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology

Upon completing the MS degree in the field of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology, students will be able to:

Demonstrate an ability to understand and critically evaluate concepts, research accomplishments, and techniques in ecology and evolutionary biology.

Demonstrate independent problem solving and critical thinking skills by identifying novel research questions in ecology and evolutionary biology and synthesizing critical paths towards answering them.

Demonstrate technical proficiency in a range of ecology and evolutionary biology research methods.

Demonstrate the effective written communication skills required for scientific publications, grant proposal submissions, and a thesis describing independent research.

Demonstrate the effective oral and visual communication skills necessary for articulating scientific findings and significance to diverse audiences.

Course Requirements

The MS degree is a thesis master’s degree. Most of the formal course studies will be completed in the first year of residence to allow the students to begin thesis research at the end of their second semester at Rice. Entering students will meet with their faculty advisor to form a course of study of the first year. Students should have completed coursework in ecology, evolution (or equivalent), mathematics (including calculus), and statistics prior to admission. Deficiencies in these subject areas should be made up during the first year of residence; some may be waived at the discretion of the EEB Graduate Advising Committee and the EEB Graduate Program Director.
