Program details
Overview
Chemistry (Biological) is a Bachelor of Science degree at Memorial University designed for students who want a solid chemistry foundation combined with biology, preparing them for further specialization in the chemistry of biological systems. The program also carries two teachable subjects for students planning to pursue teaching. Coursework builds core chemistry knowledge in areas such as organic, inorganic, analytical and physical chemistry alongside biology courses that connect chemical principles to living systems, supporting graduates headed toward biochemistry, pharmaceutical, environmental or health-science careers, or graduate study in chemistry or a related biological science. The four-year degree is offered with honours available. Students are admitted to the Faculty of Science under general admission requirements and later declare the Chemistry (Biological) major, which requires a 65% average or better across first-year chemistry, mathematics and physics courses. The program is delivered on the St. John's campus.
