Biochemistry is an interdisciplinary science that applies the methods and theories of chemistry to understand chemical reactions in living organisms. Biochemists seek to understand life at all levels, from individual molecules inside cells to complex interactions within ecosystems. An undergraduate major in biochemistry will prepare you for a variety of careers including biotechnology, drug design, science policy, bioinformatics, forensics, genetic counseling, health professions, science communication, and so many more! Biochemistry majors will be able to apply the principles of biochemistry, biophysics, and molecular biology to answer questions in a wide range of research areas including protein biochemistry, molecular biology of gene regulation, enzymatic reaction mechanisms, signal transduction, DNA repair, reproductive biology, DNA-protein interactions, plant and natural product biochemistry, and structural biology including nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy and x-ray crystallography.
