Introduction

Biochemistry—Molecular Biology (BCMB) is an interdisciplinary major aiming to understand living systems at the molecular level. Students in the BCMB major learn about cell structure, characteristics from a biological and biochemical perspective, and its intricate and complex functions through which basic life processes are governed. To this end, the curricular structure for this major includes courses from various disciplines in the Natural Sciences, including Biology, Chemistry, Mathematics, and Physics.

In addition to the standard coursework, the BCMB curriculum emphasizes the importance of a research experience. The students are exposed to the state-of-the-art techniques used by researchers in this field. The major also prepares undergraduate students interested in pursuing interdisciplinary graduate programs, such as genetic engineering, genomics, proteomics and bioinformatics. BCMB majors cannot minor in either chemistry or biology.
