CURRICULUM
The first year curriculum is unified for all concentrations
in order to provide a common foundation in research methodology.
Students are required to take a survey course in biochemical
systematics, engage themselves in the elements of research,
and attend a series of seminars covering recent scientific
advances in related fields. The second year curriculum is
designed to provide greater depth in the student's chosen
area of concentration. The third and fourth years focus primarily
on research.
