Biochemistry Advising
Welcome to the Biochemistry Office of Student Academic Affairs! This office provides valuable services to both graduate and undergraduate students. The undergraduate advising portion of the office houses the academic advising folders for our undergraduate students. We email advising information to you and distribute printed information and other handouts about the program, department, and university. If you are a prospective student in Biochemistry, we can meet with you and your parents. We are happy to also make referrals and answer questions. Other resources we provide include course information, references for graduate institutions, career planning, and summer research opportunities.
If you are a first-year student, we highly recommend you meet with your advisor during registration periods and at other times when advice is needed. If you are a second-year, third-year, or fourth-year student, you may plan your schedule without consulting a biochemistry advisor, but self-advising is not recommended. Advisors are always available by appointment and advising information is emailed to all biochemistry students prior to each registration period.
