The nationally-recognized quality of a science education at Alma College makes our Biochemistry graduates attractive to chemical, pharmaceutical and biotechnological firms. But because substantial positions in corporate or academic research usually require a Ph.D., Alma's bachelor's degree program in Biochemistry is primarily designed to prepare you for graduate school. Alma's reputation for producing well-prepared and informed undergraduate science students leads to placement in some of the best graduate schools. Ninety-two percent of Alma students find employment in fields related to their academic programs or enter graduate or professional schools within six months of graduation.
