Chemistry Paradigms

A degree in Chemistry can be used for many different occupations, including:
1)  a preparation for a research career in chemistry or biochemistry
2)  a preparation for medical school
3)  a preparation for pharmacy school

4)  a preparation for different areas in forensic science

5)  a preparation for a
teaching licensure in chemistry or both chemistry and biology.
We have developed paradigms for all five of these goals.

A degree in Biochemistry provides a strong preparation for both the workplace and professional schools, including pharmacy school or medical school.  The program places emphasis on development of a wide range of laboratory skills that are needed in today’s biomedical laboratories, whether they are found in industry or academia.
