Welcome to the department of Biochemistry & Molecular Biology, a research-intensive academic unit of the University of Georgia that is committed to excellence in research and education. We have over 60 affiliated faculty that are leading innovative research in a number of cutting edge disciplines.
- Our research mission is to generate new knowledge and original concepts related to solving modern scientific problems. We maintain internationally recognized and well-funded research programs in the areas of bioinformatics, biophysical method development, enzymology, glycobiology, molecular medicine, plant biology, and structural biology, among others.
- Our academic mission is to foster the development of independent learning, thinking, and communication skills by our students and to instill in them an enthusiasm to achieve. Original research is fully integrated into both the graduate and undergraduate curricula, which prepare students for positions in academia, agrobiology, biotechnology, government, professional post-graduate programs, and other job sectors.
We encourage you to explore our website to learn more about the department and to contact the departmental office if you require more information. |
