Discovering an Exceptional Biology Graduate Program

Point Loma Nazarene University (PLNU), located on San Diego’s coastline, is a Christian liberal arts college.  Originally founded as a Bible college by the Church of the Nazarene, it has expanded into one of California’s finest undergraduate and graduate Schools.  San Diego, being the ideal city for this excellent school, opened its doors to this church, and it has evolved into the university it is today.  Very few other graduate programs in San Diego offer the programs as well as character building that is available at this university.  

Being renamed several times from the early 1900’s until present day, this college was once located in Pasadena. Even then, in 1949, it had a reputation for being one of the best graduate schools. The college relocated to San Diego in 1973 and has been there ever since, located on beautiful and picturesque Point Loma off the coastline of the Pacific Ocean.

Along with the landscape that PLNU has to offer its students, there is also an exceptional Biology graduate program available at this university.  Whether you want to go back to school or continue on with your education, PLNU has one of the most flexible graduate programs in San Diego.  If you would prefer to work while you are attending graduate school, a student can create a part-time schedule that perfectly suits your needs.  If you decide to attend full time, of course that can be accommodated as well.  Also, there are summer courses that one can attend so that you can reduce the amount of time it will take to get your degree.  This does not exist in some other graduate schools.  San Diego is the perfect city for PLNU’s many great academic programs, including their exceptional Biology Graduate Program.

If you are a teacher and want a typical Biology graduate program added to the strengths of a traditional master’s program in education, then you as a master’s student at PLNU will get the best of both worlds.  This “hybrid” works very successfully at PLNU as students take courses that are a blend of science and teaching.  As students learn the concepts taught in their science courses they will understand the exact challenges facing their students.  PLNU’s interesting hybrid program makes it one of the most innovative graduate programs in San Diego.  And because of their unique position of being a Christian college teaching a science, the teacher working toward a graduate degree will learn how to address the issue of science and religion.
