Program details
Overview
This Bachelor of Science in Cell and Molecular Biology examines the basic processes that drive life, focusing on genes, microbes, and the genome. Students study cellular interactions, genetic controls, microbial structure and function, and genetic mapping techniques through lectures, laboratory work, and undergraduate research opportunities. The program is offered as a Specialization (66 credits) or Honours (72 credits). Full-time study takes a minimum of three to four years (90-120 credits), with classes held primarily on the Loyola campus, and admission in the Fall or Winter term.
