专业概况

在这里学什么？

Graduate courses in physiology may be taken leading to the Master of Science or the Doctor of Philosophy degrees with a major in molecular, cellular and systemic physiology. Graduate courses in molecular, cellular and systemic physiology may also contribute to a program leading to a Master of Science degree major in biological sciences or to a teaching specialty for the Master of Science in Education degree major in secondary education or in higher education.

The Department of Physiology offers advanced training in mammalian physiology, aging, cancer biology, cell physiology, molecular biology, molecular endocrinology, neuro-endocrinology, neurophysiology, neuropharmacology, reproductive biology, and reproductive endocrinology, metabolism and human anatomy. Students entering the graduate training program are advised to plan the course work so as to acquire a broad knowledge of the field before emphasizing one of these sub-disciplines. The advisory system in the department is set up to help students in planning their work. All graduate training programs in the department are subject to approval of the graduate program committee (GPC) of the department.

Each term the student must be engaged in a training assignment which supplements formal course work and will consist of research or teaching or both. The student is required to have participated in both types of activities, research and teaching, as a graduate student at SIU as a condition for receiving a graduate degree.

Total Hours Required

A total of 30 semester hours at the 400- and 500-level is required for the master’s degree. Of the total hours completed, at least 21 of these must be graded (A, B, C) hours. At least 15 of the total 30 must be 500-level courses taken at SIU. Of these 15, a minimum of 3 hours of PHSL 599 (thesis) is required. More than three hours of 599 may be taken, however only six may be counted toward the 500-level requirement.

Thesis

The thesis should represent a competent piece of original research carried out on a specific physiological problem or area under the research advisor’s supervision. It should include an adequate review of the literature, a statement of the hypothesis, a set of experiments testing the hypothesis by whatever methods are appropriate, an analysis of the results, and an interpretation of the work and its significance. Upon completion of the thesis research, a final department seminar is presented followed by an oral examination. The examination will be conducted by the Advisory Committee and will cover the subject of the thesis and other matters related to the discipline.
