Biochemistry is where chemical processes merge with biological functions and systems. It's the fascinating area of study where scientists focus on the biochemical reactions that happen at the molecular level in living things.<br><br>Biochemical research is an integral part of many fields, and discoveries in biochemistry have improved and continue to improve the quality of our lives. From contributions to the field of medicine including in cell biology, pharmacology, immunology, nutrition, cancer research, and forensic medicine to its applications in industry and food production, biochemistry is demonstrating an ever-widening range of impact, opening up exciting new opportunities for future biochemists.<br><br>To prepare you for this highly collaborative field, the University of New Haven's B.S. in Biochemistry program integrates courses in biology and chemistry to give you a holistic view of how chemical interactions influence biological systems. The knowledge you gain in the classroom will be put to work in hands-on laboratory courses, where you will develop your proficiency in conducting scientific experiments using our high-tech instrumentation to analyze and evaluate experimental results.
