Program Description

The BS degree program's primary objective in Molecular Cell Biology is to prepare students for careers in fields that require advanced knowledge of molecular biology, particularly those that relate to human health and welfare. Examples of such fields include, but are not limited to, medicine, pharmacology, pathology, genetic testing and counseling, biotechnology, nanotechnology, teaching, and basic research. The proposed program will focus on eukaryotic organisms' molecular biology, which sets it apart from the current program in Microbiology, which focuses on prokaryotic organisms. It will emphasize our understanding of the molecular biology of human health, disease, and treatment, differentiating it from the existing Biology program. The second objective and natural consequence of a program in Molecular Cell Biology is human resource support for the medical school, UH graduate programs, and biotechnology businesses that provide services and economic opportunities to communities throughout the state of Hawaiʻi.
