Our biochemistry major is a vital part of our curriculum. We instituted the major in 1981, long before many other colleges had a similar major, as part of an effort to strengthen the chemistry major and attract more women to the physical sciences. The strong chemistry component of the major with the inclusion of important biology courses gives these students a sound foundation for further work in either chemistry or biology.
Internships are highly encouraged.
