The Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Master’s degree program at IU School of Medicine is an in-depth 11-month program that includes faculty lectures, small-group problem-solving exercises and student-led seminar courses during the fall and spring semesters. Program participants develop a deep and thorough understanding of biochemistry and acquire skills that translate to employment in biomedical sciences, industry or academics. Graduates also pursue advanced study, and the MS degree enhances an individual’s academic credentials. The department has both a thesis and a non-thesis option.
