Department of Biological Sciences
The Department of Biological Sciences offers a program of advanced study in the areas of molecular and cellular biology, neurobiology, physiology, immunology, genetics, structural and computational biology, developmental biology, molecular biophysics, bioinformatics, and chemical biology.
The graduate program provides each student with a strong background in contemporary biology and an in-depth knowledge of one or more of the above areas. During the first year, all students take an intensive core course that provides a solid background in structural biochemistry, cell biology, genetics, and molecular biology. Two additional elective courses are required, which are generally completed in the second year. A departmental colloquium is held each Monday at noon throughout the academic year. All graduate students are expected to attend regularly. Additional research seminars are also presented frequently by visiting scholars.
