Some of the highlights of PULSe include: PULSe offers students a diverse range of research opportunities in the basic life sciences. These research areas include: Biomolecular Structure and Biophysics, Chemical Biology, Chromatin and Regulation of Gene Expression, Integrative Neuroscience, Membrane Biology, Microbiology, Molecular Evolutionary Genetics, Molecular Signaling and Cancer Biology, Molecular Virology, and Plant Biology. While in PULSe, students participate in a curriculum designed to provide them with the professional skills necessary for research in the life sciences. These include: scientific communication, proposal writing, and ethics. In the first year of study, PULSe students carry out research rotations in FOUR labs for periods of SEVEN weeks, two rotations in the fall semester and two in the spring. These rotations allow students to sample a wide variety of research subjects and approaches before choosing a major professor, which is required at the end of the first year. All students entering the program receive an assistantship and full tuition. For the 2008-2009 academic year, students received a $22,500 assistantship plus a full tuition waiver. Graduate students are also eligible for a university-subsidized health insurance plan.     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:   # of Students Enrolled Part Time:   Average GPA:   Average Test Scores:   Charge Per Credit:   Annual Full Time Avg Institution Tuition:   Financial Aid Offered:   Average Work Experience:   Specializations:   # of Terms Per Year: Semester  Placement Percentage:   Historically Black:   Religious Affiliation:
