Return to {$returnto_text} Return to: Departments and Programs

The Biochemistry Major is designed to meet the requirements for a chemistry background for the preprofessional degree leading to health science areas such as medicine, dentistry, veterinary medicine, nutrition, clinical chemistry, toxicology, pharmacology, molecular biology, etc. A minimum of 35 chemistry credit hours must be selected according to the following:

Senior Year:


  • CHEM Elective, 5000 Level

Chemistry Requirements


The student must take one of the following courses to complete the required 34 hours of chemistry:

Biological Sciences Minor


To complete an optional biological sciences minor, the student must take any two of the following courses:
  • BIOS 5200 - Human Genetics

Additional Comments:


The student would have to enroll in CHEM 2250 in the fall term of the junior year and CHEM 4360 in the Spring term since CHEM 2250 is a prerequisite for CHEM 4360.

It is recommended that the additional chemistry course needed to complete the major and the two additional biology courses needed to complete the biology minor (if the student wishes to do this) be taken in the senior year.
