Overview

What you'll learn

During your first year in the Biochemistry program of Capital University, you'll take introductory courses in biology and chemistry, followed by organic chemistry, genetics and analytical chemistry in the sophomore year. You'll also begin a broad-based program of general education in the liberal arts tradition — teaching you critical thinking, problem solving and communication skills that will prepare you to adapt to a rapidly changing job market. If you're a first-year student who's not sure of your academic interests (you're not alone), our curriculum in the first two years is designed so you can easily change majors to biology or chemistry.

Where you'll go: careers and placements

Opportunities for advances in human health care make biochemistry an exciting field of study. Pharmaceutical and biotechnology firms are major employers of graduates with a biochemistry major.
