Licenciatura en Ciencias en Bioquímica

The program includes innovative activity-based learning in small classroom settings. Faculty teach all our lab classes, not graduate students. Chemistry lab sections range from 20 to approximately 10 students in upper-level courses. Integration of chemistry majors within the program allows students to work closely with faculty and staff as teaching assistants, tutors, and laboratory preparers.

The BS in Biochemistry follows guidelines established by the American Society for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology (ASBMB). With a focus on the chemical processes within living systems, biochemists use chemical knowledge and techniques to understand and address biological problems. The program includes an undergraduate research experience and prepares students for admission to graduate and professional schools, particularly in the medical field, and employment as professional chemists in the rapidly growing fields of biochemistry and biotechnology.
