The Modules include CHEM 2070-2080, General Chemistry, CHEM 2150-2160, Honors General and Inorganic Chemistry, BIOBM 4320, Survey of Cell Biology, BIOBM 4400 Laboratory in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, CHEM 2870-2880, Introductory Physical Chemistry, CHEM 3570-3580, Organic Chemistry for the Life Sciences, BIOBM 4380, RNA World, BIOBM 6310, Protein Structure, Dynamics, and Function, BIOBM 7300, Protein NMR Spectroscopy, CHEM 3000, Quantitative Chemistry, CHEM 4510, Structural Chemical Biology.
Entry requirement for international students
Students must meet the following preparatory courses: 16 units, including four of English, three of mathematics (including precalcu¬lus), three of science (including one of biology, and one of chemistry or physics) and also recommended: an additional unit of advanced mathematics and science. Students should have completed at least 55 credits, with a minimum of 30 earned at Cornell, and who have a cumulative GPA of at least 3.0. Students seeking admission must have the equivalent of an American high school education at the time of admission. International students whose first language is not English must have taken the TOEFL/IELTS exam.
