专业概况

在这里学什么？

Biochemistry is the study of life on the molecular level. It combines approaches from chemistry, physics, and biology to study the fundamental mechanisms of living things and is a central discipline in the molecular biosciences and their biomedical applications.

Biochemistry majors choose one of two emphasis options in the program:

Molecular Biology provides increased emphasis on cell biology and molecular genetics, integrating genetics with the study of life on the molecular level. Biochemistry/biophysics provides increased emphasis on physics and mathematics, applying physics and math to the study of life on the molecular level.

Strengths of the program

Learn research techniques and operate advanced equipment. Undertake a research project of your own, mentored by a faculty researcher. The prestigious STARS program helps ambitious, high-achieving students get an early start on research and earn their Ph.D. in biochemistry, genetics and cell biology, or microbiology up to two years faster. You can join a math, science, and engineering community residence hall at WSU Pullman—share classes with your neighbors, study together, get free tutoring, and use the hall’s computer lab. Individualize your course of study within the School of Molecular Biosciences. Study with faculty noted for their work in protein biochemistry, DNA repair, structural biology, molecular plant sciences, food science, and reproductive biology.

Biochemistry facilities

Biochemistry students have access to the following outstanding facilities:

Equipment for ultracentrifugation, recombinant DNA techniques, HPLC, protein analysis and purification, DNA sequencing and synthesizing, and more Bioanalytical Laboratory Electron Microscopy Center Nuclear Radiation Center Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Center X-ray Crystallography Laboratory Owen Science and Engineering Library, the largest library of its kind in the Northwest

Careers in biochemistry

Biochemistry majors have wide and diverse career opportunities in the life sciences.

Careers open to graduates in this major include technical positions in pharmaceutical, agricultural, food, and biotechnology industries; private or governmental laboratories; and nonprofit institutions such as clinical and hospital laboratories and at institutes that focus on research.

Graduates are also prepared to pursue advanced professional degrees in human medicine, dentistry, veterinary science, pharmacy, and other fields.

With advanced degrees, they practice medicine, teach at the college level, or conduct basic or applied research in the government, higher education, or private industry. Others have careers in law, business, or government.
