    1. Students graduating with a Biochemistry major (B.S.) must complete the major requirements with at least a 2.0/S grade in each course.
      Not resolved to a course
    2. Students majoring in biochemistry should plan on taking CHEM 425 and CHEM 426 during their Junior year. They are also encouraged to take BIOL 151 , BIOL 152 , BIOL 311 and BIOL 320 prior to Biochemistry 1: lecture and lab.
      Not resolved to a course
    3. Since both calculus and physics are prerequisites for CHEM 451 , students are encouraged to start the cognate sequences as soon as possible.
      Not resolved to a course
    4. Students may not double major in chemistry and biochemistry.
      Not resolved to a course
    5. Recitations cannot be counted as elective courses.
