Cell and Molecular Biology

The BS in Cell and Molecular Biology degree offers a curriculum concentrated in the areas of genetics, cell, and molecular biology. It emphasizes critical evaluation of scientific data, performance of sound experiments and tools for effective communication both orally and in writing. All CMB–BS students will complete a minimum of 11 laboratories and spend at least 100 hours working on an independent research project outside class under the supervision of a biology professor. Graduates of this major will be prepared to enter graduate school in biomedical research, health–related professional school, or work in careers related to the biotechnology industry.

**Note: All biology students must complete a Major Field Test prior to graduation. **
