Biological Sciences with Specialization in Biotechnology - BA/MA

In this five-year program, qualified undergraduate Hunter College biology majors begin graduate work as seniors and receive the MA one year after completing BA requirements. Students are provided with theoretical knowledge and skills in molecular biology, and a foundation for application of these skills in careers in the biotechnology/pharmaceutical industry, academic research, or public health. Successful completion of the biotechnology workshop, an essential program component, entitles students to a summer internship in an industrial or private research laboratory.
