The Biology graduate program at Rensselaer is unique because it provides a solid academic foundation in molecular biology and biochemistry while enabling you to design graduate curricula to your individual preferences. Our goal is to prepare students for research, biotechnological, or industry careers at the forefront of modern biological science.

Rensselaer emphasizes advanced research in these topics:

  • biochemistry and biophysics
  • bioinformatics
  • cell and molecular biology
  • cancer cell biology
  • wound healing
  • tissue engineering
  • microbiology and microbial ecology
  • recombinant DNA and genetics
  • vision regulation
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.

We have a very favorable student to faculty ratio, ensuring that our graduate students have the opportunity for close interaction with their faculty advisors. You will also have opportunities for collaboration with renowned scientists from other departments such as chemistry, engineering, or mathematics, as well as nearby institutions including the Wadsworth Center/New York State Health Labs, University at Albany, and Albany Medical Center.
