Academic Programs Overview
Graduate Programs
This program trains students in modern research areas of plant or microbial
biology. An advisor works with each student to design an individual course of study,
tailored to the graduate's interests and career goals. Each graduate program
features a set of core core courses, an introductory seminar, and additional
special topic courses and seminars in areas of faculty specialties. The
Department has research expertise in the following areas: 
- molecular
- cellular
- genetic
- biochemical
- physiological
- developmental
-
- structural
biology
- microbial biology
- and plant-microbe interactions.
This department provides each
student with a breadth of understanding of microbial biology from the molecular to the cellular
levels of organization and the interactions of microbes, beneficial and
pathogenic, with other organisms.
