Bachelor of Science [B.S] [Molecular Biology] From University of Wyoming

The Undergraduate Program in Molecular Biology

• The goal of the undergraduate program is to assure that our graduates can:

• Propose logical hypotheses that explain novel biological phenomenon, calling upon a reservoir of biological facts and the application of fundamental principles

• Propose experimental tests of hypotheses, using appropriate techniques, experimental controls, and the logical application of the experimental method.

• Effectively communicate in written and oral mediums the significance of classic biological principles and emerging biological developments to both expert and lay audiences.

Your course plan for a degree in molecular biology will include an individually tailored program built on a solid foundation of science. You’ll take a core of courses in biology, chemistry, physics and mathematics, as well as classes in the fine arts, humanities, social sciences and communications. 

Introductory courses in microbiology, genetics, biochemistry, and molecular biology in science and society will prepare you for more advanced laboratory modules to acquire knowledge and expand your skills in different areas of molecular biology. 

Finally, with help from your adviser, you’ll select additional courses that reflect your interests and offer preparation for your chosen career goals. Shown below are several "options" for concentrating your study: they serve as guides but can and should be individualized to fit your interests and goals.
