- Description
- The Chemistry and Biological Sciences departments offer interdisciplinary biochemistry and chemical biology (BCCB) graduate programs. These programs train the student broadly in biochemistry, chemical biology and related fields, and require original research in an area related to biochemistry and chemical biology. The PhD degree is awarded for original investigation leading to a significant advance of knowledge in biochemistry and chemical biology. Therefore, the PhD degree is primarily a research degree. In addition to research, students take courses and seminars, which provide necessary background in the knowledge, basic principles, methods and theories of chemistry. In addition to several required courses, students complete other courses that best serve their particular needs.
