Cooperative Arrangement with the Keck Graduate Institute
In collaboration with the Keck Graduate Institute, students interested in biotechnology may qualify for admission to the Master’s in Bioscience Program.
Students in the program will complete the four-year Bachelor of Arts degree in biochemistry at Occidental including specified courses for one of three tracks – computational biology, bioengineering, or biosystems – in preparation for study at KGI toward the Master’s in Bioscience. Students with at least a 3.2 GPA in their required biochemistry classes will be guaranteed admission to the KGI master’s program immediately following their graduation.
