Bachelor of Science (B.S.) - Major in Cell and Molecular Biology, B.S. (6230)

The Cell and Molecular Biology Major is designed for students with career interests in medical, industry, and/or government research, academics, and/or healthcare. Students begin with foundational courses in introductory biology, math, chemistry, and physics. They proceed to advanced core lecture and lab courses in cell biology, microbiology, genetics, and molecular biology delving into details such as DNA and protein structure which are essential for understanding the complex functions of living things. This foundation prepares students for careers on the “cutting edge” of science. As a part of this major, students are encouraged to earn course credit and gain experience doing hands-on research with a faculty mentor.

This major has four concentrations allowing students to individualize their education based on specific interests and goals.

The completion of a minor is optional for this major.
