Biochemistry is involved with the exploration of the molecular processes of life and reflects the intersection of chemistry and biology needed to understand these processes. The biochemistry major is designed to meet the needs of students interested in this interdisciplinary subject. Students completing a biochemistry major will be prepared for careers in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries, for pursuit of graduate degrees in biochemistry or chemistry and for entry into medical, veterinary, dental or pharmacy schools. This degree program follows guidelines suggested by the American Society for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology for an undergraduate degree in biochemistry.
