All Biochemistry & Molecular Biology majors are required to include a research experience as part of their undergraduate program. This requirement may be satisfied in the following ways:
1) an independent research project in Biochemistry & Molecular Biology
2) a student/faculty collaborative research project in Biochemistry & Molecular Biology
3) on off-campus internship for credit in Biochemistry & Molecular Biology
4) a research experience not covered by the above but deemed equivalent by the contributing faculty
In addition to the required course work, a number of other relevant courses are taught by the Biology and Chemistry departments, and it is recommended that students explore these offerings in order to broaden their expertise and investigate specific topics appropriate to their own interests.
