Biochemistry & Molecular Biology, Master’s Degree, Program Minors

You can earn a second major in Biochemistry & Molecular Biology. We also offer a Master’s Degree in Biomedical Engineering, and several program minors.

Biochemistry & Molecular Biology

Offered exclusively as a second major or as a minor, Biochemistry & Molecular Biology gives you an opportunity to augment your education in this technically-important field. If your first major is in chemistry or chemical engineering, you’ll find considerable overlap with your biochemistry and molecular biology courses. Students from other disciplines are also encouraged to participate, but will have to take more courses to complete the major.

Minors

A minor in biology, or biochemistry and molecular biology will add another important dimension to your education, expanding your career potential and your understanding of the life sciences.
