Biological Chemistry Major

A major in Biological Chemistry must include the cell and molecular biology, chemistry, physics and mathematics courses in the lists under Requirements. At least two elective courses, selected from Requirements list, also must be included. In addition, an appropriate six-credit special project integrating the student’s biological and chemical studies is required.

Because of the interdisciplinary nature of the Biological Chemistry major, students in this program may not minor in chemistry, cell and molecular biology, or ecology and evolutionary biology.
