O que eu aprenderei?

Biochemistry is an interdisciplinary science, linking chemistry and biology to increase our understanding of the fundamental chemical processes that facilitate life.

Biochemistry is the study of the chemical structures and processes of living organisms. It is an inherently mechanism-focused discipline.

At Mount Allison, Biochemistry students begin their studies by examining the world around them at the molecular level.

As part of the Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry, the program is designed to provide students with a solid science foundation in the first two years, with paths for specialization in third and fourth years.

Intro courses include:

introductory biochemistry
introductory chemistry
cell biology
organic or analytical chemistry
enzymology and metabolism

Third year is a pivotal year in the program as you will take core lab courses that lay the foundation for research in biochemistry, including lab only courses like Molecular Analyses and Experiential Biochemistry.

Upper year courses concentrate on sub-disciplines of biochemistry, with topics like:

nucleic acids
molecular structure of the immune system
animal, bacterial, and plant viruses
protein structures and function
biochemical ecology
lipids and membranes
signal transduction
animal physiology

Biochemistry is an interdisciplinary program, which means you may also take courses in biology, chemistry, physics, environmental science, and mathematics.

Popular career paths for biochemistry graduates include:

genetics researcher
pharmacologist/pharmacist
agricultural biochemist
atmospheric/environmental biochemist
public health nutritionist/dietitian
food/nutritional biochemist
forensic scientist
biological oceanographer
medical doctor
dentist
