Bachelor of Science in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology

The interdisciplinary major in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology investigates biological phenomena at the molecular and chemical levels. The intersection of Biology and Chemistry provides an integrative focus for understanding the molecular processes of life, and students engage the material using contemporary methods of biochemical analysis and Molecular Biology. The curriculum consists of required courses which provide a strong background for further study in both fields and electives which allow students to pursue their interests in either biology, chemistry, or both.
Students graduating with an interdisciplinary major in Biochemistry have a strong foundation for entering graduate and medical schools or industrial positions. However, please note that due to the breadth of the fields of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, no single curriculum can prepare students for all graduate school programs and industrial positions available in these areas. Therefore, students are strongly encouraged to consult with their advisors when choosing their elective courses so that they will have a background appropriate to pursue their post-graduation goals.
