BS in Biochemistry - General

Eastern Michigan University

A Bachelor of Science in Biochemistry is an excellent foundation for advanced studies and a scientific research or teaching career. This major is for students fascinated by how life works at a molecular level and who want to contribute to human understanding by directing ground-breaking research in industry or academia. In addition to taking both lecture and hands-on laboratory courses, Biochemistry majors are expected to participate in individual, mentored research with a faculty member. Involvement in undergraduate research allows the student to begin contributing to the body of scientific knowledge and typically includes opportunities to present research findings both to other EMU students and regional or national conferences. It is also the best preparation for a research career.
