Biology/Cell and Molecular Biology, BS

The Cell and Molecular Biology (CMB) track with the proposed Minors (Biomedical Science, Environmental Microbiology, Forensic Biosciences), is a comprehensive track with a broad science background that prepares students and provides the flexibility to take advantage of a range of careers requiring a strong science related curriculum. For qualified and highly motivated CMB students, we also offer a pathway to graduate in three years.

The CMB bioscience core and biomedical electives helps prepare students for entry into medical, dental, or other professional school programs (please refer to individual professional school programs for their specific requirements). All these experiences are contained within the single, comprehensive major in CMB that is designed to prepare graduates with knowledge and skills for immediate employment in biotechnology, forensics, biopharmaceuticals, and various health fields. They also provide for an excellent preparation of students who seek admission into graduate (for example, biomedical engineering, genetic counseling, public health) and professional programs.
