Cellular and Molecular Biology

Degree Details

Dive deep into a living cell, starting with basic biochemicals and advancing to macromolecular mechanisms and intercellular communication with our Cellular and Molecular Biology concentration. Understanding the cell is fundamental to developmental biology, molecular medicine, and immunology, and for all living systems from fish to forests. From the single cell comes all living things. This major combines biology and chemistry to unlock the secrets of how cells function and how nutrition, medicines, and the internal and external environment influence developmental and cellular programming. There are many careers that can be pursued, including biotechnology, medicine, biomedical engineering, plant molecular biology, and toxicology in environmental sciences.
