Bachelor of Science in Biochemistry

The B.S. in Biochemistry provides students with a firm foundation in the quantitative areas essential to all of chemistry, such as general, organic and biophysical chemistry. In addition to the foundational courses, the curriculum provides a thorough background in cell biology, genetics and molecular biology, to establish the context for biochemical processes.

The curriculum is structured to leave room in the junior and senior years for a series of elective subjects on a rotating basis that reflect the expertise of the faculty. These courses are designed to provide in-depth coverage of specific areas through advanced laboratory and lecture courses.
