理学士 生物化学

"Our 生物化学 degree is truly interdisciplinary and prepares our students to delve into both the cellular and chemical interactions that are essential for life on Earth,尼古拉斯·斯塔苏里说, Ph.D.他是生物学助理教授 & 环境科学和生物化学项目协调员.

把自己定位在两大科学的交汇处

生物化学 is where chemical processes merge with biological functions and systems. It’s the fascinating area of study where scientists focus on the biochemical reactions that happen at the molecular level in living things.

生物化学研究是许多领域不可分割的一部分, and discoveries in bio化学 have improved — and continue to improve — the quality of our lives. 从对医学领域的贡献-包括细胞生物学, 药理学, 免疫学, 营养, 癌症研究, 法医学在工业和食品生产中的应用, 生物化学正在显示出越来越广泛的影响, 为未来的生物化学家开辟了令人兴奋的新机会.

我们的计划为你提供成功的所有要素

To prepare you for this highly collaborative field, the 网赌上分平台’s B.S. in 生物化学 program integrates courses in biology and 化学 to give you a holistic view of how chemical interactions influence biological systems. The knowledge you gain in the classroom will be put to work in hands-on laboratory courses, where you will develop your proficiency in conducting scientific experiments using our high-tech instrumentation to analyze and evaluate experimental results.

此外:

  • You will have the unique opportunity to perform mentored research with faculty from both the 生物学 and 化学 programs, 增加你的研究经验的深度, 哪些会给未来的雇主留下深刻印象.
  • Because biochemists — like everyone else— must possess the soft skill of effective communication, you will develop the ability to critically assess and effectively communicate your knowledge of biology, 化学, 以及口头和书面的实验结果.
  • You will develop proficiency in the use and critical evaluation of scientific literature and biological and/or chemical databases.
