Biochemistry is a multidisciplinary field at the heart of life science. It is the study of the chemistry of life that provides information on the structure and function of biomolecules in relation to health and disease states. It has a wide range of applications that extends from nutrition to medicine, food science, agriculture, forensics, bioengineering and other related fields in the allied health, in the natural and environmental sciences. Our graduates are employed in private and government industries including biotechnological, pharmaceutical, environmental and agribusiness firms. Many continue on to the medical field or pursue graduate studies while engaged in research work or teaching in academic institutions.
