The Department of Chemistry Would Like to Announce a

 

 

NEW DEGREE PROGRAM!!

 

 

 

Bachelor of Science in Biochemistry

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 


The Bachelor of Science in Biochemistry will fulfill the need of those students who are pursuing pre-medical or pre-dental programs as well as those who plan to enter fields such as business, environmental or patent law, where a background in biochemistry can be of great utility. A Major in Biochemistry will also prepare students for graduate work in chemistry or biochemistry; teaching chemistry in secondary schools; employment with industry or government; entry into professional schools such as medicine or dentistry; or entry into law school with a view toward specialization in patent or environmental law.
