Exploring Life at the Molecular Level

Explore the chemistry of life and the science of discovery.

Advance science and human health as a researcher, technician, educator, or prepare for advanced studies in medicine, dentistry, veterinary science, pharmacy, or biotechnology with a Biological Chemistry degree from Culver-Stockton College.

Here, you will experience the dynamic intersection of biology and chemistry, exploring how molecules shape living systems and fuel innovation in healthcare and technology. Through hands-on lab work and interdisciplinary study, you will develop a deep understanding of the sciences and the skills to make a real impact.

Whether your goal is to lead research , heal patients, or drive scientific discovery, Biological chemistry gives you the foundation to make it happen.

The C-SC Difference

From your first year, you will do more than study science. You will practice it.

Through Culver-Stockton College’s Genomics Research Initiative, even first-year students with no prior lab experience can conduct real scientific experiments, working alongside peers and contributing to a nationwide research alliance that shares data across laboratories throughout the U.S.

You will learn from a diverse faculty representing four countries and three continents, all holding or pursing terminal degrees in their fields bringing global expertise and perspective into your classroom.

Our state-of-the-art facilities feature updated equipment designed to train biologists for the demands of 21st-century science.

And if medical school is your next step, we offer partnership agreements with Kansas City University Medicine and Biosciences, Doctorate of Osteopathic Medicine and Antigua College of Medicine, giving you a clear path toward your future in healthcare.

Culver-Stockton College’s Biochemistry program gave me the tools, hands-on experience, and support I needed to thrive. The classes, concepts, and labs I experienced continue to shape how I approach real-world challenges in the lab. I’m deeply grateful to Culver-Stockton for the education and professors who inspired my career in biochemistry.
