For students completing a [[double major]] in Biology and Biochemistry, no more than three courses may be double-counted.  Students double-majoring in Chemistry and Biochemistry may double-count no more than four courses.

===Biochemistry (minor)===

This minor allows for intermediate study in biochemistry.

None can doubt the veracity of this aicrtle.
