The Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology boasts a distinguished faculty known for outstanding teaching and globally recognized research achievements in biochemistry, molecular biology, cellular biology, and structural biology. Their work receives among the highest levels of external funding per faculty member within the College of Natural Sciences.
The BMB department's Master's programs deliver comprehensive training in cellular biochemistry, gene regulation, bioinformatics, molecular genetics, and biophysics. Students learn from faculty actively engaged in pioneering biochemistry research. These programs equip graduates for diverse career paths in academia, government agencies, biotech firms, medical fields, or pharmaceutical companies, while also enhancing prospects for advanced professional or graduate studies. The one-year Plan B M.S. program focuses on fundamental and emerging biochemical principles through coursework (30 credits) culminating in a final project. The Plan A M.S. program shares the same core curriculum but adds hands-on laboratory research under BMB faculty supervision and requires a Master's thesis.

Qualification Requirements
Bachelor's degree must be completed by the start of your graduate program.
U.S. degrees must be from a regionally accredited institution to qualify for CSU graduate admission (certificate or degree program).
Contact your department to find out if unofficial transcripts are accepted. If your department accepts unofficial transcripts, you may be admitted and registered in your first semester of courses with an unofficial transcript. Official transcripts must be submitted, prior to or during your first semester, before you can register for your second semester of graduate work. Failure to meet this condition will result in your dismissal from the Graduate School.
You will need unofficial transcripts of all collegiate work completed post-high school. Separate transcripts are required for study abroad if the courses, grades, and credits are not recorded on the transcript of the university that sponsored the study abroad.
Training course transcripts from branches of the U.S. Military that show credit received with neither grades nor degrees awarded are exempt from the transcript requirements. You must upload the front and back of transcripts and include any grading scale provided.
In general, the minimum cumulative GPA for non-provisional admittance is a 3.0 GPA (on a 4.0 scale) to be admitted by the Graduate School.
