In addition to exposure to an advanced background of all the sub disciplines of Chemistry, students in the MS in Molecular Biochemistry Non-Thesis Track study the chemistry of biomolecules with a focus on the bio analytical aspects. Computational methods integrated with more traditional methods provide students with a versatile background suited for a variety of industries. This track is non-thesis with a lab component that will expose students to the specific state-of-the-art technologies.
The Master of Molecular Biochemistry requires a total of 33 credits.
