The Interdisciplinary Approach
We recognize that contemporary research requires expertise in a discipline as well as several topic areas. Any student that has completed a baccalaureate degree can enroll in nine hours or two courses in the biomedical sciences program as a special non-degree seeking student, subject to space availability. All laboratory courses are exempt.
