Departments
The Molecular Biology Program and Biological Chemistry Program are two complementary interdepartmental graduate programs at the University of Utah.
At the end of their first year of graduate school students will choose thesis advisors by mutual agreement and will automatically be admitted to the Ph.D. degree program of the advisor's department.
