About
The Department of Biochemistry Bahauddin Zakariya University Multan has always been committed to maintain a symbiotic relationship of teaching and research. It offers a wide range of courses recognizing traditional values in the discipline yet reflecting its dynamic shape. It is worth to say that Department of Biochemistry now has been shifted to its own newly constructed ,vast building, fully equipped and decorated with all essentials requirements , that will provide a platform to the students for their better learning and understanding the practical works under the umbrella of a single roof. BS (4-Year), MSc, MPhil/MS and PhD programs are being offered. Curricula have been developed under the guidelines of the Higher Education Commission of Pakistan to cover all the recent areas of Biochemistry.

History
The Department of Biochemistry has been established in August 2012 with the approval of the concerned University Authorities. Although Biochemistry section was working since 1975 under the umbrella of the Department of Chemistry, yet it has now been given independent identity. A large number of students have got their MSc, MPhil and PhD degrees in Chemistry with specialization in Biochemistry. Several students have completed their theses of research in Biochemistry.
