生物学哲学博士-分子遗传学

生物学系在麻省理工学院提供基于论文的研究生培训。（理学硕士）和博士学位。（哲学博士）水平。在这两个课程中，学生都必须参加课程。通常，这些课程是从生物学列表中选择的，但是您可以从校园内任何部门或其他大学学习，只要您的咨询委员会认可该课程即可。必修课程中至少有两门必须来自生物系列表。我们所有的课程都要求研究生采用“研究生学术诚信模块”。这是一门在线课程，必须在您第一学期的前8周内完成，并将列在成绩单上。完整性办公室将与您联系以完成此在线模块。这与也需要的学术诚信研讨会不同。<br> <br>自重组DNA技术问
The Department of Biology offers thesis based graduate training at both the M.Sc. (Master of Science) and Ph.D. (Doctor of Philosophy) levels. In both programs students are required to take courses. Normally, these courses are selected from the Biology listings, but you may take a course from any department on campus, or from other universities, provided that it is approved for credit by your advisory committee. At least two of the required courses must come from within the Biology Department listings. All our programs require that graduate students take the Graduate Academic Integrity Module. This is an online course that must be completed within the first 8 weeks of your first term and will be listed on your transcript. You will be contacted by the Integrity Office to complete this online module. This is not the same as the Academic Integrity Workshop, which is also required.<br><br>The Department has been active in Molecular Biology since the advent of recombinant DNA techniques. However, this has been strengthened by a series of hires in the 1990s and 2000s and the techniques of molecular biology now extend throughout research in the Department. The Department is taking a leading role in new research and training initiatives in Synthetic Biology, which the Department defines as the combination of Biology with the principles of Engineering to design and build organisms and biological systems with defined purpose.
