分子遗传学研究生课程提供的研究和研究课程将导致获得哲学博士学位（PhD）。我们的计划以分子遗传学的潜在共同主题为基础，提供全方位的研究培训机会。各个学院实验室的研究重点在于分子，细胞和发育生物学的基本问题。该系的研究生系使用模型生物研究分子遗传学中的许多令人兴奋的问题。教师的兴趣和专长的广度将确保任何研究生都将接受一流的教育，并会面对与他们的兴趣相匹配并磨练其技能的研究问题。我们研究生课程的目标是培训能够在学术界，政府或行业中确立自己独立研究能力的科学家。
The graduate program in molecular genetics offers a course of study and research leading to the Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) degree. Our program provides a full spectrum of research training opportunities with the underlying common theme of molecular genetics. Research in individual faculty laboratories focuses on fundamental questions in molecular, cellular and developmental biology. The graduate faculty in the department study a wide range of exciting problems in molecular genetics using model organisms. The breadth of faculty interests and expertise will ensure that any graduate student will receive a stellar education and will be exposed to research questions which align with their interests and hone their skills. The goal of our graduate program is to train scientists who will be able to establish themselves as independent researchers in academia, government or industry.
