Master of Science in Molecular and Cell Biology ensures that students develop an advanced knowledge of biochemistry, molecular biology, cell biology, and quantitative biology. Housed within the Department of Biological Sciences, the master’s program allows students to benefit from the department’s areas of research strength:

  • Biochemistry and Biophysics
  • Genomics, Systems, and Computational Biology
  • Microbiology
  • Molecular and Cell Biology
  • Pathobiology (cancer, neurobiology, and infectious disease)

The Molecular and Cell Biology master’s program ensures that students gain a broad understanding of the field and its subfields, apply their knowledge and analytical skills to create effective and novel solutions to practical problems, and communicate and work effectively in collaborative environments.
