BA/BS in Chemistry

This BS degree in biochemistry, built for pre-health students, readies students for graduate study in biochemistry, work in the chemical or pharmaceutical industries, or entry into medical professional programs. Flexible upper-division courses allow each student to tailor the degree to individual goals. Undergraduates join research projects led by experienced faculty and can share results at scientific conferences around the region and country. Many have appeared as co-authors on papers in respected journals. The department also provides modern laboratory facilities and a published course rotation to help with planning. Students intending to enter health-related professions can use this track to cover the prerequisite courses those programs expect. Admission follows the general undergraduate process at TWU, which considers academic achievement, preparation and standardized test scores.
