Is my program
affected?
Search a major, field, or college. A result describes a published change. No result does not guarantee that a program is unaffected.

Read each action label carefully. A closure, admission pause, teach-out, and accreditation change do not mean the same thing. One college decision may also name several programs.
Indiana's official program review lists Purdue University West Lafayette's B.S. in Chemical Biology and Biochemistry for program suspended with teach-out. Current students retain a path to finish. The action applies to this credential, not to the institution as a whole. Open the record for the exact decision and source.
Minnesota State Mankato lists Biochemistry - BA for suspension. Current students may finish through a teach-out. This is a program action, not an institution closure. Open the record for the exact decision and source.
Virginia Commonwealth University closed the Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology and combined its administration with two other departments in the new Department of Cellular, Molecular, and Genetic Medicine. This is a department reorganization, not an institution closure. Open the record for the exact decision and source.
A program action is not
a career forecast.
Colleges close or pause programs for many reasons, including enrollment, cost, staffing, accreditation, and state policy. Before changing plans, confirm the action with the college and compare the field with independent labor-market information.
