Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, B.A.


Barbara Christie-Pope, Sophia Gillette, Charles Liberko, Jai Shanata, Cindy Strong, Craig Teague, Craig Tepper (chair), Catherine Volle

This interdisciplinary major is designed to prepare students for graduate school or a technical career in biochemistry/molecular biology. It is also a suitable preparation for the health professions. The curriculum is drawn from the Departments of Biology and Chemistry, with emphasis on cellular biology, genetics, and biochemistry, and laboratory techniques in these areas.

Note:


Biochemistry/Molecular Biology majors desiring to minor in Chemistry must complete at least two appropriate courses in Chemistry beyond those counted for the Biochemistry/Molecular Biology major. Biochemistry/Molecular Biology majors desiring to minor in Biology must do so by completing BIO 211 , BIO 221 , and an upper-level elective course chosen from the plant or animal grouping. (See Declaration of Degree Candidacy, Majors, and Minors .)
