At Case Western Reserve University, we're a community of innovators, knowledge-seekers and groundbreakers. As a leading national research university located in one of the nation's top arts districts and within walking distance of three major hospitals, we offer ample opportunities for you to excel. With programs spanning the arts and sciences, engineering, health sciences, law, management, and social work, our research and educational opportunities allow our students, faculty, staff and alumni to tackle today’s toughest problems—and transform the future.

Our BA and BS programs in Biochemistry both provide a strong foundation in biomedical sciences.  Both programs prepare students well for postgraduate studies and careers in health sciences or research.  The two programs differ in their math, physics, and statistics course requirements and number of required technical elective courses.  Both programs include optional tracks in Cancer Biology, Infectious Disease, Metabolism, and Computational Health Science.

Biochemistry students are expected to participate in an undergraduate research project in one of the many laboratories at CWRU engaged in biochemical research.
