Overview

Join a dynamic and fast-growing scientific community researching today’s most important human conditions. Participate in an individually-tailored program that emphasizes professional skills and career development.The Biochemistry, Cell and Molecular Biology master’s program from Central Michigan University is research-intensive, so you’ll get exceptional hands-on expertise. Conduct research under the guidance of a faculty mentor working together to complete a thesis. Cover the essentials with core courses that develop your specialized knowledge in biochemistry, cell and molecular biology. Enhance your area of interest and personalize your education with elective courses.

Successful completion of the MS requires a minimum of 30 hours of graduate work beyond the bachelor's degree. Your individual program of study will be developed in consultation with the faculty mentor and approved by his or her thesis committee.
