1.The Honors Program in Biochemistry Molecular Biology (HPBMB) is offered mature high school seniors with strong academic ability and achievement who seek careers in biological or biomedical science.Students can earn both a bachelor of Science (B.S.) and a doctor of Philosophy Degree (Ph.D.) in approximately 6 years.
Applicants to the Honors Program in biochemistry Molecular Biology must be in their last year of high school.
Undergraduates will have the opportunity to work with top-level research scientist in Biochemistry & Molecular Biology and also in clinical laboratories with scientist that are associated with the department.They will conduct intensive laboratory work in the areas of biochemistry,molecular biologyor nutritional biochemistry starting in the summer before their first fall semester starts.By spring of their junior year,students will prepare an undergraduate thesis as preparation for their entry into graduate school.At that time they will start taking graduate courses and continue to do research with a graduate faculty member.
To be considered students must:
●Have acombined SAT I score of 1400 (combined Mathand critical Reading scores)
●Meet the SAT II score requirement of at least 600 in Math and one science (Biology,Chemistry or Physics)
●Have completed eight semesters of English and mathematics and two semesters each of biology and chemistry by the time they graduate from high school
●Complete all components of your Common Application for undergraduate admission by November 1 of your senior year
●Complete a supplemental application from for the Honors Program in Biochemistry & Molecular Biology
●Include a counselor recommendation,three letters of recommendation from teachers in support of your application to the Honors Program and a personal statement
