Overview

Because the M.S. and Ph.D. are research degrees, admission to the Biology program at The University of New Mexico requires that a member of the graduate faculty agree to serve as your mentor and advisor.

Features

Our faculty love to talk about their research, so you should contact faculty members with research interests related to your own to determine which lab(s) would best fit your interests and goals.
