Program details
Overview
This program leads to a Bachelor of Science with a major in biochemistry, delivered in person over four years and combining theoretical coursework with laboratory work. The biochemistry major covers molecular biology, metabolism, protein studies, and laboratory techniques, supported by related coursework in anatomy, physiology, organic chemistry, and analytical methods, along with mathematics, biology, and statistics. Later options allow specialization in areas such as clinical biochemistry, immunology, or bioactive lipids, and instruction includes scientific article analysis, bibliographic research, and written and oral assignments alongside general education requirements. The first two years can be completed at the Edmundston campus, the first year at Shippagan, or the full four years at Moncton. The program is designed to prepare graduates for direct entry into fields such as pharmaceutical production, food quality control, medical research, or environmental protection, rather than for further biochemistry-specific graduate study.
Requirements
Minimum GPA:70.00 / %
Admission Requirements: Admission requires five secondary-level courses: French (Fran 12 / Francais 10411 or equivalent), Mathematics (Math 30411C pre-calculus or equivalent), one terminal science course (Biology, Chemistry, or Physics), plus two other eligible courses. Minimum grade of 65% is required in FRAN 10411 and 60% in each of the other four admission courses, with an overall average of at least 70% across all five. All science baccalaureate programs also require a minimum of 6 credits in French. Applicants submit an official secondary school transcript (plus college/university transcript if applicable) with a $60 application fee, via the university's admission application form. No entrance tests, portfolio, or reference letters are stated as required.
Application Details
Application Deadline:Canadian and permanent-resident applicants apply directly to Université de Moncton by recurring annual deadlines that carry no published calendar year: 31 August for autumn-term entry and 5 January for winter-term entry, with the Baccalauréat en science infirmière (Nursing) and Baccalauréat en design intérieur due 1 February, and the 16-month Baccalauréat en éducation due 1 February at the Moncton campus or 30 June at Shippagan/Edmundston. International applicants must apply by 31 May for autumn entry and 30 September for winter entry, with the 16-month Baccalauréat en éducation due 1 February at Moncton or 31 May at Shippagan/Edmundston. Applications received after these dates are automatically deferred to the following session, and Université de Moncton may close applications earlier if volume is high, so admission is firm rather than rolling. The admissions page's only calendar-year reference is to the Automne 2026 term already under way (registration closes 4 September 2026, classes begin 9 September 2026), which places the source's current context in the 2026-27 academic year; the next occurrences of the recurring deadlines above therefore fall in Hiver 2027 and Automne 2027. These are institution-wide dates; this programme publishes no deadline of its own.
