Overview

Chemistry majors at the University of Oregon complete an integrated, rigorous program that includes foundational course work in chemistry and biochemistry and additional course work in related fields. Undergraduate majors benefit from taking graduate courses in synthetic modeling, physical chemistry, materials, computational chemistry, biochemistry, molecular biology, and modern instrumental techniques.

The American Chemistry Society-certified degree emphasizes laboratory experience and the development of professional skills. A unique strength of the department is the opportunity for undergraduates to participate in the activities of a dynamic research group that considers problems extending well beyond textbook instruction.

Career opportunities

Biochemistry majors pursue careers in environment and health, research and development, quality control and regulatory industries, and law and policy.

The top occupations for the department’s majors are medical scientist, chemist, family and general practitioner, chief executives, teachers, and industrial engineers (source: EMSI).
