Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biophysics

Creating Excellence in Education

The overall educational objective of the Biochemistry and Molecular Biophysics (BMB) Department is to graduate students who are competent laboratory scientists, intellectually prepared for future endeavors, and proud ambassadors of Kansas State University. We intend to provide K-State students with appropriate biochemical, molecular biological, and biophysical training for their professional careers, whatever they may be. Our programs include undergraduate degree plans in Biochemistry (BA, BS, BS/MS), Medical Biochemistry (BA, BS) and Molecular Biophysics (BS) along with the MS/PhD interdisciplinary graduate degrees in Biochemistry.

The BMB Department would like to thank you for your generous support. Your donations allow us to enhance the educational and research experience of our students, offer scholarships, and attract and support quality faculty. All these advantages improve our ability to recruit and retain outstanding and deserving students.
