Summary: The aim of this study was to know teaching strategies undertaken by biochemistry teachers in higher education. A systematic review of the literature was conducted, and was included articles developed in Brazilian universities, published in the 2004-2015 period, with descriptors learning, biochemistry and graduation. 40 publications were found, and 2004 was the year with most studies (n=7). The most common activities were conducting experimental activity (32,5%), development of various teaching tools (22,5%), use of Problem-based Learning (20%), use of information technologies (17,5%) and development courses (7,5%). Thus, it was observed that there are groups of teachers working with different teaching strategies seeking to improve student learning. The production and publication of knowledge in teaching in biochemistry can help this process.
