Our educational programs emphasize strong foundational training at the undergraduate level with a core curriculum focussing on macromolecular structure and function, metabolism, molecular biology, signal transduction, and protein biophysics.

In addition, specialized course work in chemistry, physics and biology complements the undergraduate degree program and offers the student an exceptional grounding in modern biochemistry.

The majority of our undergraduate students conduct one or more research projects or internships under faculty guidance as part of their degree program to gain hands-on experience in biochemistry.

Undergraduate majors are prepared to enter the work force directly in the biotechnology or pharmaceutical industry, matriculate into graduate or professional schools, or pursue related careers in law or public policy.
