Choosing a Great Biochemistry & Molecular Biology School for Your Master's Degree

Your choice of biochemistry & molecular biology for getting your master's degree school matters. Important measures of a quality biochemistry and molecular biology program can vary widely even among the top schools. Below we explain some of the most important factors to consider before making your choice:

Overall Quality Is a Must

The overall quality of a master's degree school is important to ensure a quality education, not just how well they do in a particular major. To account for this we include a school's overall Best Colleges for a Master's Degree ranking which itself looks at a host of various factors like degree completion, educational resources, student body caliber and post-graduation earnings for the school as a whole.

Other Factors We Consider

The metrics below are just some of the other metrics that we use to determine our rankings.

• Major Focus - How many resources a school devotes to biochemistry & molecular biology students as compared to other majors.
• Major Demand - How many other biochemistry & molecular biology students want to attend this school to pursue a master's degree.
• Educational Resources - How many resources are allocated to students. These resources may include educational expenditures per student, number of students per instructor, and graduation rate among other things.
• Accreditation - Whether a school is regionally accredited and/or accredited by a recognized biochemistry & molecular biology related body.

Our complete ranking methodology documents in more detail how we consider these factors to identify the best schools for biochemistry & molecular biology students working on their master's degree.
