Student research is an integral part of the Biochemistry Major at Bowdoin College. Check out what Bowdoin biochemistry students have been up to recently.
Bowdoin’s Biochemistry Program draws upon Chemistry and Biology offerings to present a course of study examining the structure and properties of the molecules that make up living organisms. The major in Biochemistry enables students to explore a broad diversity of related disciplines through elective courses, including (but not limited to) microbiology, biophysics, molecular medicine, genetics, free radical biology, and environmental toxicology. Biochemistry is a vibrant field of study and majors are encouraged to get involved in research with Biochemistry Program faculty members or others in the Departments of Biology and Chemistry.
