Key Summary

    About: This program focuses on advanced studies in Biochemistry, Cellular, and Molecular Biology, providing students with a comprehensive understanding of biological systems at the molecular level. It emphasizes research methodologies and applications in various biological disciplines, preparing graduates to tackle complex scientific problems.
    Career Outcomes: Graduates can pursue careers in biomedical research, pharmaceutical development, biotechnology, and healthcare. Opportunities also include roles in education, government research, and clinical laboratories.

This major is a convergence of many scientific fields, including modern biological chemistry, cellular and molecular biology, chemistry, botany and biology. It covers most of the requirements for the Medical College Admission Test. Your experience is defined not only by the quality of research facilities (ours are new, clean and well-equipped) but also by your relationships with peers and faculty. Labs are capped at 14 students, allowing for maximum interaction, instruction and sharing of ideas. Small classes mean you also gain experience with oral presentations and scientific writing in a research-oriented atmosphere. By the time you graduate, you will be proficient in the use of computers to model chemical systems and control lab instruments.
