Cell Biology
The Department of Anatomy and Cell Biology in the School of
Medicine, in conjunction with the School of Business, offers a Masters of Science degree
in Cell Biology with a Certificate in Business (CBB). The goal of this program is to
train students for biomedical research management positions in the biotechnology and
pharmaceutical industries. Although many Anatomy and Cell Biology Departments around
the country offer masters degree programs, this program would be unique in combining cell
and molecular biology research skills with courses in business in a succinct amount of
time, and has the enthusiastic support (internship training) of the private sector where
these students seek to gain employment.
A minimum of 32 semester hours, exclusive of thesis research,
is required for this 2 year M.S. degree. Required courses for the cell and molecular
biology segment of the program are as follows: Ilistology, Cell Biology, Basic Embryology,
Cell and Developmental Biology Seminar (every semester), Industry Laboratory Research
(internship), Cell Biology Laboratory Research Techniques and Cell Biology Project
Research (every second year), Principles of Development, Recombinant DNA Techniques in
Molecular Biology. Required courses for the business segment of the program are:
Accounting, Human Resource Administration, Marketing, and General and Strategic
Management.
