This community contains the theses and dissertations of the Department of Biology and Microbiology. raduate degrees available through the Department of Biology and Microbiology are the MS and the PhD in Biological Sciences. Students may choose specializations in Biology or Microbiology.
Due to copyright restrictions, the collection contains both open access and university access theses and dissertations. University access items are only available to SDSU users, and on-campus visitors. Non-SDSU users wishing to access restricted materials may request items through their institution’s interlibrary loan services.
