Dual-Degree BS in Biochemistry/MS in Molecular and Cell Biology (4+1)

Quinnipiac University

Biochemistry is a dynamic field that bridges multiple scientific disciplines, examining how the chemical structures and reactions within cells and tissues sustain life under both healthy and diseased conditions. In the Biochemistry (4+1) dual-degree program, you’ll explore these molecular processes while gaining a deeper understanding of molecular biology, how interactions among chemical and biological molecules regulate cellular activity and biochemical function. This pathway begins with a strong undergraduate foundation in chemistry and biology and transitions into graduate-level coursework that examines advanced molecular and cellular mechanisms. You’ll learn in state-of-the-art laboratories, collaborate with experienced faculty, and participate in hands-on research that prepares you for doctoral study, professional healthcare programs, or careers in biotechnology and pharmaceuticals.
