University of California, Los Angeles
Biophysics B.S.

The goal of the Biophysics major is to provide students with the undergraduate background to enable them to enter very good graduate programs in biophysics, molecular biology, and physics. As the molecular biophysics field emerges as an important and rapidly developing area of scientific research and knowledge, the major is designed to provide both the scientific/technical training and the immersion in physics and molecular biology necessary to enable students to understand and integrate these fields intellectually and to have the opportunity to become leaders in bringing the analytic and experimental techniques of both fields to bear on the complicated behavior of microbiological macromolecular systems.
