— it helps other students.
This master's degree introduces three linked fields: molecular biology, cell biology and biochemistry. Students learn through lectures, seminars and lab or library research, and the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences administers it.
Three routes lead to the degree. One is built mostly on courses, one on a research thesis grounded in a professor's lab, and one on a scholarly paper that surveys a scientific topic under supervision. Coursework-only students fill the gap with more electives.
Its stated purpose is career preparation, especially for biotech and drug-industry jobs. No foreign language is needed, and finishing usually takes between one and three years.
The degree sits within a graduate community where students work closely with faculty advisors on a plan of study that suits their goals. Prospective applicants should consult the program page and the relevant school admissions pages for current requirements, deadlines and tuition, since those details are not given on the program page.
