Undergraduate Programs

The Biochemistry Major at the University of Massachusetts Boston is jointly administered by the Departments of Biology and Chemistry.

A member of the principle biochemistry faculty serves as the Director of the Biochemistry Joint Major. The curriculum generally follows the recommendations of the American Society of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology (ASBMB). This is a rigorous and well-rounded program of study designed to accommodate the needs of a broad spectrum of students seeking a terminal or non-terminal bachelor of science degree in biochemistry.
