The biochemistry major provides the opportunity for students to concentrate on an increasingly important academic discipline within the context of their liberal arts and science education.
CAREERS
A biolchemistry major is an excellent choice for pre-medical, pre-dental, and pre-veterinary students; for graduate study in biochemistry, biology, chemistry; and for students who are interested in careers ranging from allied health professions, biochemical research in government and industrial laboratories to careers in forensics or the chemical or pharmaceutical industries.
