Note:
Students are encouraged to take courses offered by other TIGP programs to fulfill credit requirements for specialized courses. All courses must be taught in English and related to the field of Chemical Biology and Molecular Biophysics.
If the course is not on the list, means it does not count as graduation credits for the CBMB program.
Students can apply to take the course not on the list, but they must send the course syllabus to the secretary of the CBMB program at least two weeks before the course starts. If the course is approved by the Academic Affairs Committee, it can be counted as credits for graduation requirements.
*NTU-CHEM students should confirm with the program office before taking the elective courses.
