Abstract :
A survey of biophysics teaching programs shows that at least 68 institutions in the United States and Canada now offer such programs, and more will be started in the near future. A classification of types of program is given, together with pertinent statistics. Despite a wide diversity of interests and administrative organization, a remarkable degree of agreement on the requirements of biophysics as a discipline is disclosed.
