Keck Graduate Institute Summary

The following paragraph provided courtesy of wikipedia.

Keck Graduate Institute of Applied Life Sciences (short KGI) is a small graduate school in Claremont, California. The two year MBS program integrates scientific, engineering, and business curriculum, culminating in a Team Master’s Project (TMP) sponsored by one of KGI’s industry partners. Keck Graduate Institute of Applied Life Sciences is accredited by the Accrediting Commission for Senior Colleges and Universities of the Western Association of Schools and Colleges Notable members of Keck’s advisory council include Bruce Alberts, Simon Ramo, and J. A group of KGI faculty were recently awarded a $4.88 million grant through the NSF’s Frontiers in Integrative Biological Research (FIBR) program to study the basis of modularity in biology. The decision to set up the Keck Graduate Institute as a seventh Claremont College met with opposition from the faculty and students of the existing Claremont Colleges. The two primary complaints were that the Institute decided not to grant tenure to its faculty, and that it was originally intended to be built on the Bernard Field Station, an area of undeveloped scrubland used by some biology classes at the other colleges. The faculty of five of the colleges passed faculty resolutions condemning the Institute’s decision not to grant tenure, and four passed another resolution condemning the plans to build on the Bernard Field Station.
