Welcome to the Department of Cell Biology, Microbiology and Molecular Biology at the University of South Florida! You should find our website a useful tool to explore the degrees and services we offer, news about the department, or find out more information about our faculty and staff. Our department has been growing rapidly and we have hired a number of new faculty. This growth provides new opportunities for students in a number of ways including our ability to teach more varied courses, especially at the undergraduate level. We continue to develop the curricula in both our Biology B.S. Cell and Molecular Concentration and in our Microbiology B.S. programs. This year, we have introduced a new accelerated B.S.to M.S. degree program that allows especially talented students to get both a B.S. and a non-thesis M.S. degree in five years. Our website will keep you up to date on these new developments.

New faculty members also mean new opportunities for graduate and undergraduate research in our Department. If you are an undergraduate seeking research experience, you can find more information about it here. For those of you who may have recently graduated in Biology and want more education but don't want to commit to a long term research program, we offer a non-thesis M.S. in Biology with a Concentration in Cell and Molecular Biology and a non-thesis M.S. in Microbiology that can be completed in less than two years. For research oriented graduate students, we have revised the graduate curriculum for our M.S. degrees in Biology Concentration in Cell and Molecular Biology and in Microbiology as well as our Biology Ph.D. concentration in Cell Biology, Microbiology and Molecular Biology. Over the past few years we have hired new faculty in the areas of structural biology, cancer biology, aging studies, microbial pathogenesis and computational biology. Our faculty continues to do well with research funding from the National Institutes of Health, the National Science Foundation, Department of Energy and Department of Defense and other granting agencies. Look forward to additional opportunities from the Department of Cell Biology, Microbiology and Molecular Biology.
Best Wishes,
James R. Garey, Ph.D
