The interdepartmental major in biology-chemistry has been designed for those students whose academic needs and interests lie in both biology and chemistry. The major was instituted because a large segment of contemporary scientific interest can best be served by such a major. Areas well served by this preparation include medicine, dentistry, and several graduate disciplines, including biochemistry, physiology, and molecular biology.
