Bachelor of Science in Molecular Biology
Molecular Biology is the study of life in its smallest forms. It looks at the macromolecular pieces that make up what we see around us, including DNA, RNA, proteins and lipids. Molecular biologist study the mechanisms governing molecular control of cellular processes and the interactions between various cell systems. From the study of life, to the application of cutting-edge technologies to the life sciences, molecular biologists provide the link and tie between multiple branches of the STEM fields.
Program Highlights:
- Explore the molecular foundations of life through the study of DNA, RNA, proteins, and cellular processes
- Gain hands-on experience with modern laboratory techniques and advanced scientific technologies
- The Center for Undergraduate Research and Learning (CURL) houses a collaborative network of laboratories utilized for mentored undergraduate research projects
- Work closely with faculty mentors on collaborative research projects in the biological sciences
