We offer a wide range of training opportunities in important areas of biomedical research including Cancer Biology, Cardiovascular Disease, Neurosciencesand Infectious Disease and Immunology. In the past years, the Program has grown in the numbers of both students and faculty mentors. Our researchers have also experienced a rapid rise in our funding for impactful research projects, as well as in our reputation for outstanding training of the next generation of Biomedical Scientists. We look forward to having you as an important part of our Graduate Student Community.  \nGriffith Parks, PhD  \nDirector, Burnett School of Biomedical Sciences Director, UCF Biomedical Sciences Graduate ProgramProfessor of Medicine  \nUniversity of Central Florida College of Medicine 6900 Lake Nona Blvd  \nOrlando, FL 32827 Office: (407) 266-7011  \nCell: (336) 970-1598  \n[Griffith.Parks@ucf.edu](Griffith.Parks@ucf.edu)  \nProgram Coordinator Introduction & Welcome  \nWelcome to the Burnett School of Biomedical Sciences Master of Science in Biotechnology Program. This program is designed to give you broad knowledge and training in the scientific and practical aspects of biotechnology. It involves innovative, hands-on, and multidisciplinary learning approaches to give you the necessary education and training in scientific aspects of biotechnology. The courses and research training required in this program are also designed to develop independent thinking, teamwork, and communication skills, which are highly desirable in the biotechnology industry.  \nAs a new master’s student, you will face many new experiences that can be both rewarding and challenging. Your studies will involve foundational coursework and laboratory research. You will have the opportunity to work closely with faculty members from the Burnett School of Biomedical Sciences (BSBS) as well as other schools and colleges within UCF and affiliated partners in the Orlando area.  \nThe Biomedical Sciences Master of Science in Biotechnology Program will prepare you for a career in academic research, higher education, or biotechnology. Course work will provide a basic grounding in relevant topics, while hands-on research experience will be the cornerstone of your masters training. Expectations are for you to go beyond the assigned classroom readings and use your curiosity to explore new research trends, building a knowledgebase to support your career as an independent scientist. Oral presentations and writing assignments will teach you the skills needed to effectively communicate your discoveries to the scientific community.  \nIn the first year of the program, you will choose an advisor and form a thesis committee that will guide your studies and prepare you to conduct your own research. Careful selection of a supportive advisor and appropriate thesis committee members cannot be overstated. The process of achieving a masters (Thesis) degree will demand dedication and effort that go far beyond your undergraduate experience. The expectations are high but also are the achievements and rewards.  \nThe program director, program coordinators, faculty and staff are available to help you succeed in the program. You are encouraged to interact with your peers and to participate in the intellectual life of the university. You have already made the decision to enter a graduate degree program.
