The department was established in 2019 in St. Ann’s degree college for women and offers UG courses. Biochemistry is the application of chemistry to the study of biological processes at the cellular and molecular level. The Department had only one post. In 2019 May M. Sudha rani joined as assistant proffessor. Till today she is continuing her services.

The Department tries to achieve the overall goals and objectives of the college.

Objectives:

1. Demonstrate knowledge and understanding of the molecular machinery of living cells;

2. Demonstrate knowledge and understanding of the principles that govern the structures of macromolecules and their participation in molecular recognition.

3. Use basic laboratory skills and apparatus to obtain reproducible data from biochemical experiments
