Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute Biochemistry and Biophysics Program 110 8th Street Troy, NY 12180-3590 US   Phone: 1-518-276-6789   At a Glance Program Requirements Tuition & Financial Aid Institution Overview Important Dates Upcoming Events Degrees: Program Format: Master's M.S. - Biochemistry and Biophysics;M.S. in Applied Science On Campus   The Biochemistry and Biophysics graduate program at Rensselaer emphasizes studies and research at the molecular level. It is sponsored jointly by the Departments of Biology and Chemistry, with additional participation by faculty from other departments in the Schools of Science and Engineering. An advanced degree requires both course work and a research thesis. Research subjects include, but are not limited to: molecular chaperones formation of amyloid bodies behavior of bio-polymers and cells in electric fields modeling of biological processes cell signaling and transduction mechanics and optics of the human lens protein folding Experimental approaches range from modern molecular genetics and biochemical separation methods to spectroscopic and other physical-chemical methods. The resources for this type of research are extraordinarily rich at Rensselaer, with its strong emphasis on modern technology. Computing facilities and sophisticated analytical instrumentation available here make many difficult tasks easier to perform. Additional research opportunities and facilities are available through collaborations with scientists at the Wadsworth Center of the New York State Department of Health. You may alternatively choose to pursue the Master of Science in Applied Science with emphasis in biochemistry and biophysics. In this new degree program, you combine master+s-level cooperative education participation, or equivalent industrial experience, with course work for a professional M.S. in Biochemistry and Biophysics.     Accreditation Information:   # Of Credits Required:   Time To Degree:     Previous Degrees Pre-Requisite Courses International Student Requirements Requirements Qualifying Exam: Minimum Exam Score: GPA or Equivalent: English Proficiency: Research Competency: Clinical Internship:   Work Experience Volunteer Experience Publications Experience Foreign Language Requirement Other Requirements   Cost Per Credit Hour: $   Tuition:   Financial Aid Offered:       # of Students Enrolled Full Time: 1131  # of Students Enrolled Part Time: 286  Average GPA:   Average Test Scores:   Charge Per Credit: $1358  Annual Full Time Avg Institution Tuition: $32600  Financial Aid Offered: Yes  Average Work Experience: Less than 1 Year  Specializations:   # of Terms Per Year:   Placement Percentage:   Historically Black: No   Religious Affiliation: Not applicable
