The UO Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry offers a minor in biochemistry. Biochemistry minors complete an integrated, rigorous program that includes foundational course work in general, organic and biochemistry. Undergraduates may also benefit from taking upper division courses in materials, computational chemistry, molecular biology, and modern instrumental techniques. A unique strength of our program is the opportunity for undergraduates to participate in the activities of a dynamic research group that considers problems extending well beyond textbook instruction.
