The Bachelor of Science in Biochemistry at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign's College of Liberal Arts & Sciences (LAS) is an interdisciplinary undergraduate program focusing on the chemical processes in living systems. The curriculum covers molecular structure and function, metabolic pathways, energy transformation, molecular genetics, quantitative analysis, and predictive modeling, with applications across biology, chemistry, physics, mathematics, and computation. Students gain hands-on research experience and preparation for graduate study, medicine, pharmacy, and related biomedical fields. Graduates are expected to communicate biochemical concepts effectively to scientific and public audiences and understand the social and health dimensions of biochemistry.
