MS Biology, 2015
“What I liked most about the UT Tyler Biology department is the intimacy of the department. I got my bachelor's degree from a large university and had a somewhat isolated experience. The great thing about a small and specialized faculty is that you often have to consider their perspective before seeking or applying their advice to your current work, which results in a broader educational experience than is available in a large school.”
