What it isBiochemistry is the study of the chemical processes that happen inside living cells and organisms — how molecules interact, how energy moves through bodies, and how drugs and poisons affect biological systems. You'll take courses in chemistry, molecular biology, and pharmacology. If you choose the co-op stream, you'll alternate between classroom study and paid work terms at labs or pharmaceutical companies, giving you real experience alongside your degree.Biochemistry is the study of chemical processes inside living cells and organisms, combining chemistry and biology to understand how life works at a molecular level. This co-op program includes work terms where you apply what you are learning in paid jobs with employers, giving you real workplace experience alongside your studies. It suits students who want a science degree with both theory and hands-on professional experience, and who are interested in how molecules, reactions, and life interconnect.You study the chemistry of how drugs work in the body and how to develop and test new medications. This program requires you to complete paid work terms alongside your courses at pharmaceutical companies or research labs, giving you real industry experience before you graduate. It suits people who want hands-on experience in drug development and are comfortable alternating between school and workplace every few months.
