Note that we have made some changes to the Infectious Diseases major, replacing MCB C142 with MCB 104. Note that you can choose to take MCB 104 instead of MCB 140 in track 1, but you'll receive only 3 of the 4 units for that course. If you have any questions, just come into 2083 VLSB.

Track 1-Immunology & Pathogenesis

• MCB C100A Biophysical Chemistry (4 units)
• MCB 110 Macromolecular Synthesis and Cellular Function (4 units)
• MCB 104* (NEW) / 140 General Genetics (4 units)
• MCB 150 Molecular Immunology (4 units)
• MCB 150L Molecular Immunology Laboratory (4 units)
  
• Immunology Approved Elective List C
  

*Note that students who choose to take MCB 104, will receive 3 units of credit because a portion of the course overlaps MCB 110.

Track 2-Infectious Diseases

• MCB 102 Survey of General Biochemistry (4 units)
• MCB 104 Genetics, Genomics & Cell Biology (4 units) (NEW)
• MCB 150 Molecular Immunology (4 units)
• MCB 150L Molecular Immunology Laboratory (4 units)
• MCB Elective (1) from Immuno, track 2, Approved Electives A list
• MCB Elective (1) from Immuno, track 2,  Approved Electives B list
