Biochemistry Major Requirements
Requirements for the Minor
Courses required for the Chemistry minor are: CHEM BC 2001, BC 3328, BC 3230, BC 3231, BC 3333, BC 3338, and one of BC 3232, BC 3252, BC 3271, or BC 3282. There is no minor in Biochemistry.
While it is usually not permitted for a course required for a major to count for a minor, students majoring in a science which has a Chemistry requirement, such as Biology and Environmental Science, may still complete a minor in Chemistry. An exception to the rule that "courses for the major and minor may not overlap" may be granted by the COI for a student’s minor program when the petition from the Chair/Program Director meets the following conditions:
• the petition requests to count no more than two of the overlapping courses for the minor
• more than 18 points of coursework are required for the minor
• more than 40 points are required for the major with overlapping courses
• two or more courses required for the minor are required for the student's major.
