Biochemistry is the study of the role of chemical processes in living systems.

At The College of St. Scholastica, the major in Biochemistry is earned through the Chemistry Department (click on the Catalog link) by a combination of coursework in biochemistry, biology, chemistry, physics, and mathematics in addition to the general education program.

• attend graduate school in biochemical and biomedical related disciplines;
• pursue entry-level employment in biotechnology fields; or
• enter professional school in medicine, pharmacy, dentistry, optometry, physician's assistant, etc.
