Course Overview

To pursue further studies at the professional or graduate level. Students receive solid foundations in both chemistry and biology, as well as the opportunity to specialize within the rapidly growing fields of biochemistry and biotechnology.

The Biology Department ranks in the top 20 percent of the nation’s research institutions, based on scholarly productivity and federal research grant funding. Both biology and chemistry students have the opportunity to engage in hands-on research projects under the guidance of faculty.

Biochemistry studies the intersection of biology and chemistry, exploring life at the molecular level. Biotechnology combines chemistry and biology with mathematics and physics to provide the tools for modern biology and biomedical research. Biotechnology is also used to study and alter genetic information in animals, allowing human diseases to be studied and modeled, and in plants, with agricultural benefits.

 

Entry Requirement 

General Education Requirements

Students must satisfy the university and college general education requirements. Some math or science courses required for the major may be used to meet the science and mathematics requirement of the university. There is no foreign language requirement for the degree.

All Biochemistry & Biotechnology majors are required to take a capstone seminar (either CHEM 4797 or BIOL 4797) during the semester in which they plan to graduate (the winter semester for students graduating in the summer). Students may not receive credit for both CHEM 4797 and BIOL 4797).
