Admission Requirements
Applicants for PhD training in molecular and cellular biology should have a bachelor’s degree with emphasis in the biochemical, biological, or chemical sciences. Post-master’s graduate students and MD/PhD students also qualify for admission. Students in the first year of a degree program in one of the academic departments at Boston University School of Medicine may also apply. The CMB program is also available to students who may have chosen alternate career paths such as biotechnology and education.
Students are admitted in September for the fall semester. The general requirements for the program are the standard requirements for admission to the graduate school, as detailed in the bulletin (see below).
The Bulletin of the Division of Graduate Medical Sciences is available on line.
Mary Jo Murnane, PhD is the Chair of our program admissions committee.
