Senior Thesis
Students majoring in Biochemistry who wish to graduate with Honors must complete a senior thesis and maintain a 3.5 GPA. This allows students to acquire hands-on research experience under the direction of faculty working in laboratories in the College of Arts and Sciences and Agriculture, Forestry and Consumer Sciences, as well as the School of Medicine.
Students in the Davis-Michael Scholars Program may use their thesis to fulfill the thesis requirement for the program. In addition, students in the Honors Program may use the same thesis for their Honors thesis requirement. In other words, students in Biochemistry, the Honors Program, and the Davis-Michael Scholars Program may use one thesis to complete all of the three senior thesis requirements.
