Master of Science in Biotechnology


The master's program is a two-year program, jointly administered by the General Academic Campus and the Health Sciences Center of Texas Tech University.  Students may pursue either the Applied Sciences track or the Bio-Medical track.

The Applied Sciences Track, administered by the TTU General Academic Campus, is designed to prepare students for a career in biotechnology.  Students devote their first year to course work, which is comprised of a mixture of required core courses (lectures, seminars and laboratory) and a broad spectrum of electives.  These electives allow students to gain expertise in molecular biology, biochemistry, cell biology, animal science and plant science.  For students interested in eventually moving into management positions in the biotechnology industry, a variety of business courses in management and related areas are available.
