Finding the Best Biochemistry, Biophysics & Molecular Biology Doctor's Degree School for You

Out of all the majors we analyze each year, biochemistry, biophysics and molecular biology was ranked #64 in the country. In fact 14,535 degrees and certificates were handed out in 2020-2021.

When it comes to higher education, there are a lot of options for students. As online education oppotunities continue to grow, you're not restricted to just schools in your local area anymore. Even some of the 'big name' schools are offering online courses. Also, there are a number of trade schools with offerings that you might find attractive.

To help you arm yourself with the information you need to make your decision, Course Advisor has developed this Best Value Biochemistry & Biophysics Doctor's Degree Schools in the Rocky Mountains Region ranking. Our analysis looked at 10 schools in the Rocky Mountains Region to see which doctor's degree programs offered the best value experiences for biochemistry students with the aim of identifying those quality schools that are more affordable than some of their counterparts.

This ranking is not just a list of inexpensive schools. We also consider each school's quality, since we believe a low-quality school may not be a 'bargain' at any price. More specifically, we discount our quality score by the published tuition and fees charged by a school. This gives the cost per unit of quality for each college. The value is determined by how much quality your dollar buys.

For nationwide and regional rankings, we use out-of-state tuition and fees in our calculations. Average in-state tuition and fees are used for our statewide rankings.
