Biochemistry prepares students to pursue advanced degrees in forensic science, biochemistry, chemistry, pharmacology, neuroscience, and molecular biology, as well as for medical, dental, and pharmacy schools, and physician assistant programs. Immerse yourself in exciting research areas that have the potential to make a real difference in society. As early as their first year, Hofstra chemistry students begin working with sophisticated laboratory equipment and alongside faculty on research affecting health care, the environment, engineering, and other fields. Chemistry, often called the central science because it connects all the other sciences, is great preparation for a career in medicine, engineering, environmental science, health care, or education.
