The study of biochemistry is vital to understanding medical science. In our program, you?ll learn about the chemistry of human health, structural enzymology and protein chemistry, and you?ll be prepared for medical school, graduate school or a broad variety of exciting careers.

At Carroll, an education in biochemistry is all about exploration. The biochemistry program offers courses in the basic areas of inorganic, organic, analytical, physical and biochemistry, which are supplemented by special opportunities such as industrial internships and independent research.

The hands-on research opportunities you?ll get at Carroll give you an advantage whether you?re headed for post-college employment or a graduate program. You can engage in scholarly research projects at the undergraduate level, as well as participate in a 12-week research program at the prestigious University of Strathclyde in Scotland. You can also work one-on-one with a professor to create and conduct your own Pioneer Scholars project over the summer. Our students have moved on to top research graduate programs around the country and have started careers at Dow Chemical, Abbot Laboratories and the Sigma-Aldrich Chemical Company, among other industry giants.
