Biochemistry and Molecular Biology

The biochemistry and molecular biology major is an interdisciplinary program administered jointly by the biology and chemistry departments. The program provides students with a rigorous interdisciplinary training in biology and chemistry and is designed to share with students the excitement of discovery by involving them, from their earliest years, in the process of doing science.

The program prepares students for careers in biochemical and biomedical research, biotechnology, and genetic engineering. It is especially suitable for students seeking admission to graduate programs in biochemistry, genetics, and cell or molecular biology and medical, dental, or veterinary schools.

We invite you to explore our program, and to contact us if you have any questions.
