Upon successful completion of a B.S. in biochemistry, a student will be well-prepared for graduate study, professional school, or positions in biotechnology industries.

Successful students in biochemistry enjoy the challenge of understanding how the physical world operates. They are persistent in pursuing their goals, and they pay attention to the often small but meaningful details of a project. They are able to function well in both solitary and collaborative activities.

Our department is small enough to provide personal attention to each student, yet large enough to offer the breadth of experience needed to prepare our students for their future endeavors. We provide a range of research opportunities in which students can become involved. Our facilities are modern and well-equipped.
