The Doctor of Philosophy program in biochemistry through the School of Molecular Sciences provides students with the training they need to solve biological problems at the molecular scale and to be successful, independent scientists who can address challenging societal issues. Students who earn a doctoral degree in biochemistry are fully trained in all fundamental aspects of the discipline. Most also choose to join transdisciplinary teams that work on larger, mission-based contemporary problems in areas such as: biogeochemistry, energy and sustainability, fundamental chemical biology, materials and nanoscience, medicine and health and structure function and dynamics.
