| All biochemistry majors are strongly encouraged to do research, either during the academic year or during the summer. Stipends may be available to support summer research. |
| BIOL 390 and BIOL 400, as well as CHEM 270, 350, 370, 420, and 460 are offered on an alternating year schedule. Students should work with their advisors in scheduling these courses as well as physics. |
| Students Planning graduate work may wish to strengthen their program of study by including a second semester of physical chemistry (CHEM 332), a semester of analytical chemistry (CHEM 350), and additional courses in cell or molecular biology.
