Biochemistry Advising Track

This advising track provides the first two years of a four-year university program leading to a baccalaureate degree in biochemistry. The Pensacola State College curriculum has the necessary SUS prerequisite courses for a completer to begin upper-division work as a university junior in the major.

Students should consult with an advisor at the college or university they plan to attend for the specific courses recommended by that institution. We strongly encourage you to contact the Pensacola State College Physical Sciences Department for assistance in planning your program of study.
