在这里学什么？

The Department of Biological Sciences at USC offers a progressive Master of Science (MS) degree in Molecular Genetics and Biochemistry. This degree provides the opportunity for a limited number of USC students who have already obtained some research experience to spend an extra year in their lab carrying out research at the graduate level.

A "Progressive Masters" allow students to apply a certain number of courses toward the upper-division elective requirement towards their undergraduate degree, while using these same courses as graduate electives, essentially overlapping the two degrees. Additionally, it allows students the option of completing graduate core courses in what would normally be considered their junior or senior year. Students spend a fifth year completing their graduate coursework, which includes a substantial research component. At the end of this, they are granted both degrees (BS/MS or BA/MS, depending on undergraduate major).

The Master of Science in Molecular Genetics and Biochemistry is designed to provide outstanding students in life science majors with a rigorous, quantitative experimental experience in molecular genetics, genomics, evolutionary biology, cell and molecular biology, biochemistry (depending upon the research area selected). The program is intended to position and stimulate students for possible advanced study leading to a Ph.D. in one of the areas stated above, and/or provide an important research experience to the background of a prospective medical student. The program will also provide fundamental tools and expertise for entry into a master's level positions in academic, government, or private sector research laboratories, including biotech, pharmaceuticals, or diagnostics. This is a terminal degree. Students who wish to pursue their doctorate at USC should apply directly to the Ph.D. program.
