The only course requirement specific to the Biochemistry program is the three-credit Biophysical Chem I (16:160:537) and three additional credits from a Seminar in Biochemistry (16:115:613/614). Substitutions may be granted with seminars from other related programs.
Students may fulfill remaining credits with courses from the Biochemistry program or the broader Molecular Biosciences umbrella. Course selections outside this umbrella require the program director’s permission. Students may use their lab rotation credits towards their formal course credit requirement.
Research in Biochemistry is required each semester (16:115:701/702). (24 credits minimum/40 credits suggested)
