Bachelor's Degree
The Biochemistry program equips students with a comprehensive foundation across biological, physical, and mathematical sciences. Biochemistry students explore topics like macromolecular architecture and biological functions, cellular processes, metabolic pathways, genetic regulation, nucleic acid and protein organization, DNA mechanisms, cellular dynamics, signaling pathways, and life cycle events. The curriculum also mandates coursework in physics, organic chemistry, and research-oriented statistical analysis. Through independent research and internships (often pursued in upper years but available earlier), students gain hands-on experience collaborating with faculty, potentially contributing to published research findings.
