The recommended course sequence for the baccalaureate degree in biochemistry fulfills all requirements for pre-professional preparation in medicine, dentistry, medical technology, pharmacy, veterinary medicine, and other health-related programs when electives are selected according to course recommendations for the chosen pre-professional track.

Benedictine College offers majors leading to the Bachelor of Science (B.S.) and the Bachelor of Arts (B.A.) degree in biochemistry. Biochemistry majors will not be awarded a minor in biology or chemistry.

Program Mission

The mission of the Biochemistry program is to train ethically-grounded, critically-thinking students to apply knowledge of the chemistry of living organisms to solve real-world problems and to prepare them for employment in biochemistry and related fields, graduate studies in biochemistry, or professional studies in the health sciences through a community of faith and scholarship.
