分子遗传学计划为学生准备了涉及细胞和分子生物学的各种职业目标。分子遗传学计划与生物学计划的不同之处在于，学生将研究重点放在现代实验生物学（包括生物化学，遗传学和细胞生物学）的基础上。这些原则对于理解生物体如何发育，如何响应信号以及如何与其环境相互作用至关重要。弗雷多尼亚（Fredonia）的分子遗传学学生在生物学，化学，物理学和数学方面拥有强大的跨学科基础，随后还开设了细胞和分子生物学的高级专业课程。该课程包括有关最现代仪器和技术的动手实验室培训。
The Molecular Genetics program prepares students for a variety of career goals involving Cell and Molecular Biology. The Molecular Genetics program differs from the Biology program in that students focus their studies on the foundations of modern experimental biology including biochemistry, genetics, and cell biology. These principles are critical for understanding how organisms develop, respond to signaling, and interact with their environments. Fredonia's Molecular Genetics students receive a strong interdisciplinary foundation in biology, chemistry, physics, and mathematics, followed by specialized upper level courses in cell and molecular biology. The curriculum includes hands-on laboratory training on the most modern instrumentation and techniques available.
