PROGRAM OVERVIEW
Course requirements are defined by the Cornell University graduate field of Computational Biology, (details are available at www.cb.cornell.edu).
Prior to choosing a thesis laboratory, students will be required to complete (at least) three NYC laboratory rotations and one Cornell-Ithaca laboratory rotation, as detailed in the Time Line. These rotations provide the student the opportunity to experience a range of thesis laboratory options and thereby enable an informed thesis laboratory decision.
Work-in-progress seminars and journal clubs are components of the student's education throughout the graduate training.
Admission-to-candidacy exam (A exam) and dissertation requirements are detailed in the Student Guide. Briefly, students may choose a thesis lab in any of the Tri-Institutions after completing the laboratory rotations described above.
More details can be found in the Time Line and Student Guide.
