Non-Degree (NOD) Program

Non-Degree Graduate Program in Cell and Molecular Biology is designed for students who wish to take graduate-level courses in the areas of cell biology, molecular Biology and related fields without undertaking the full commitment of a master's degree.  Students in this program are allowed to take up to 12 graduate credits.  The program is designed to prepare students to be more competitive in applying to a regular graduate program.  Potential students who apply to our M.S. or Ph.D. graduate program in CMB track may have the credits earned in the non-degree program transferred towards degree requirement according to the course requirement for the respective degree.
