PhD in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology

There is a national and international need for more researchers to address problems in the areas of human health, disease treatment, and a sustainable environment at the molecular level. Michigan Tech's PhD in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology stresses the interdisciplinary nature of this research. The PhD program requires a series of three core courses to ensure that students have a firm understanding of the fundamentals of biochemistry and molecular biology, including the principles underlying biochemical structure, biochemical dynamics, molecular biology, genomics, and biotechnology.
