Bachelor of Science in Biomolecular Science/Master of Science in Bioinformatics

Prospective students with superior admission qualifications may be selected to participate in our B.S./M.S. Program, which lets you earn 2 degrees at once a B.S. in Biomolecular Science and a M.S. in Bioinformatics, Biomedical Engineering, Biotechnology, Biotechnology and Entrepreneurship, or Chemistry. Depending on your preparation and goals, you can complete both degrees in as little as 4 years.

Scientists working at the interface between biology and chemistry create big changes while working on the cellular and molecular level. Genetically modified crops allow feed quickly growing populations, while novel therapies, such as artificial organs, extend life. Biomolecular scientists also address ecological issues such as producing cheap energy from renewable sources (like producing oil from algae), while others clean the environment through bioremediation. A B.S. in Biomolecular Science is also a suitable starting point for careers in medicine. Our program was developed in cooperation with deans from major medical schools, and graduates have gone on to Harvard Dental School, Mount Sinai Medical School, and NYU Medical School, among other medical programs.

Our B.S. program in Biomolecular Science lets you join in their efforts to improve the world. The first 2 years of the program focus on core courses so you have a solid foundation in the fundamentals of the science math, physics, chemistry, and biology. From there, you can concentrate your studies in biomedical science, biotechnology, or chemistry.
