化学理学学士-生物化学

该系提供可选课程，将授予化学学士学位，重点是生物化学。该课程旨在满足美国化学学会的认证标准。
The Department offers an optional curriculum that will result in the awarding of the B.S. degree in chemistry with an emphasis in biochemistry. This curriculum is designed to meet the standards for certification by the American Chemical Society.<br>Degree Requirements for a B.S. in Chemistry with Biochemistry Emphasis:<br>As compared with the general B.S. curriculum described in the prior link, all students take Biochemistry Chemistry 4712. The courses Chemistry 4343, Chemistry 3643, and Chemistry 4433 are replaced by:<br>Chemistry 4722 - Advanced Biochemistry (3 credits)<br>Chemistry 4733 - Biochemical Techniques (2 credits)<br>Pursuing a chemistry degree at UMSL means:<br>Hands-on coursework. Several upper-level chemistry classes involve lab work in state-of-the-art facilities.<br>Research opportunities. All students pursuing a BS or BA in chemistry have the opportunity to participate in research for credit. You can even work with a professor on their ongoing research projects, gaining real experience in the academic process.<br>Small class sizes. Many upper-level chemistry courses have 912 students, and a lab will never have more than 20 students.<br>An affordable degree. UMSL is the only place in the St. Louis area where you can get an ACS-accredited BS in chemistry at the price of a public university education.<br>Connections to local industry. The St. Louis area is a hub of chemical and life sciences companies so much so that more than half of UMSL graduates with a major in chemistry work in the St. Louis area.
