Introduction
Biochemistry and Molecular Biology (BMB) is an interdisciplinary major, which studies life at the molecular level. Under the guidance of faculty members drawn from the departments of Biology, Chemistry, and Mathematics, BMB majors study the structures and functions of cells and biological molecules by using contemporary biochemical analysis methods, recombinant DNA technology, and molecular genetics. The BMB program is appropriate preparation for graduate study in biochemistry and molecular biology, medical school and other health science professions, and careers in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries. By drawing upon the resources and perspectives of multiple disciplines, this major reflects the collaborative nature of current scientific research in this exciting area. In BMB, biologists and chemists contribute their respective understandings of cells and molecules to examine life's workings at its finest levels. Mathematicians contribute to this effort by designing the computational tools of bioinformatics, which enable researchers to understand the structures of the thousands of different genes and proteins present in living systems.
