track.
CB cooperates with the Departments of Chemistry
of NTU and NTHU.
MB collaborates with the Institute of Biochemical
Sciences of NTU and the College of Life Sciences of
NTHU.
Compulsory Courses for both CB & MB
Fundamental Chemical Biology and Molecular
Biophysics, deliver in NTU (4 credits)
Seminar (4 credits 2 academic years)
Faculty Presentation (1 credit)
Lab Rotation (2 credits 1 academic year)
Colloquium (4 credits 2 academic years)
Elementary Chinese I & II (3 credits each, required
for international students only)
Elected Courses
Advanced Chemical Biology II, delivered in NTU (3
credits), is required for the CB students.
Experimental Molecular Biophysics, delivered in AS
(3 credits), is required for the MB students.
The CB and MB students can inter-select both courses
Students are encouraged to take the courses offered by other TIGP
programs to fulfill the credits for specialized courses.
*Taught in English ONLY*
