Programme Structure
- For 35 years, Biochemistry functioned as a division of Chemistry and/or Internal Medicine, but was organized as a Department of the College of Medicine in 1948.
- Today, the Department of Biochemistry is one of five basic science departments in the Roy J. and Lucille A. Carver College of Medicine at The University of Iowa.
- Excellent research facilities and a research-oriented faculty allow our department to offer broadly based programs of undergraduate, graduate, and postgraduate study.
