Bachelor of Arts in Biochemistry (STEM)

Program Overview

Biochemistry combines biology and chemistry to study living organisms at the cellular and molecular levels. Biochemists try to solve biological problems.

It’s easy to see how biochemistry applies to medicine. A biochemist can investigate viruses and bacteria that cause human disease. They help develop treatments for cancer, heart disease, diabetes and Alzheimer’s disease.

Biochemistry is central to many other fields as well, including:

  • Agriculture (fertilizers, pesticides and herbicides)
  • Food science (food safety and preservation, flavor chemistry)
  • Cosmetics
  • Forensics (DNA analysis)

For students who want a broader curriculum that can include additional preparation in another science. BA students often double-major in biology or chemical engineering.
For students who want to:

  • Work in the business or sales end of the chemical profession
  • Work in laboratories as lab technicians or research assistants
  • Pursue medical, dental or veterinary school
  • Pursue a career as a secondary school science teacher

Highlights

  • Award-winning, research-active faculty. Our professors study everything from the smallest molecular structures to how chemistry impacts the environment. We encourage undergraduates to get involved in faculty research, and even offer part-time research positions in labs. Students often present their results at conferences and publish their work in scientific literature.
  • Top-of-the-line instruments and labs that rival those at larger institutions. UToledo biochem students use advanced equipment they’ll find on the job, in academic and corporate research facilities. Our instruments include:
  • High-field NMR spectrometers
  • High-resolution mass spectrometers
  • Powder and single crystal X-ray diffractometers
