Description
The Cellular & Molecular Biology minor will give you broad understanding of the foundational building blocks of all life, making connections between molecules, cells, and tissues, and exploring their functions in healthy and diseased states. The minor curriculum will develop your critical thinking and communication skills, as well as training you in modern laboratory techniques used in the field to prepare you for a multitude of careers in the life sciences, healthcare, education, and beyond. One course in chemistry or biochemistry is required, but there are several options to fulfill this requirement, making this minor accessible to students pursuing many different majors. Not open to Biology or Biotechnology majors.
