Departmental Information

BIOCHEMISTRY(BIOC)

Biochemistry provides the fundamentals for study of the molecular principles in biology, medicine, and the health sciences and agricultural sciences. Teaching and research in biochemistry are carried out in several locations in the University, with the main administrative offices and most professors located in Biosciences West.   Biochemistry is responsible for instruction in biochemistry in the College of Arts and Science and the Collage of Medicine. These programs serve as an excellent background for graduate study in biochemistry or the many health-related sciences, including a major preprofessional program for qualification for professional schools of medicine, dentistry and osteopathy.

The University Department of Biochemistry offers the Bachelor of Science, Bachelor of Science in Agriculture, Bachelor of Arts, Master of Science and Doctor of Philosophy degrees with a major in biochemistry. Applicants are not admitted directly to the Master of Science program. The degree is awarded only in rare instances when individuals admitted to Ph.D. programs terminate early.
