This concentration allows students to investigate the biochemical and molecular mechanisms governing cellular activity. They examine genetic regulation that can alter cellular processes both temporarily and permanently, influencing both healthy development and disease states. The curriculum demands integration of biochemical, molecular, genetic, and cellular principles to form a comprehensive perspective on tissue function and organism growth. Those completing the Cell Biology and Molecular Genetics program are prepared for diverse career paths including healthcare, biomedical research, diagnostic labs, public health initiatives, science policy, patent law, biotechnology, education, and scientific communication.
