生物化学理学学士

生物化学涉及生物中的化学和物理元素以及细胞生成和发展的生物学功能的科学。许多生物化学有关生物化学作用和基础实验的原始理论经历了革命性的现代化，现在范围更广。除健康科学外，生物化学已成为私营行业的一门强大科学，其范围从污染物分解分析到新药测试。除了许多其他技能，生物化学家还可以分离，分析和合成蛋白质，酶，DNA和其他分子。他们还研究了药物，激素和食物等物质对生物过程的影响。
Our programs in chemistry and biochemistry put a strong emphasis on hands-on laboratory experience to encourage creativity and innovation. You will receive individual attention from our faculty and thrive in intimate learning environments where lab sessions rarely exceed 30 students.<br>Whether you are interested in law, medicine, pharmaceuticals or teaching, a chemistry or biochemistry degree prepares you for excellence in many different disciplines. We are proud to offer one of the best-equipped programs of its size in the U.S. where you will have access to a wide variety of high-end field equipment that equal the facilities of big state schools.<br>Students who complete the undergraduate program in chemistry or biochemistry will have developed a set of core skills which they use in approaching the fundamental concepts, including the ability to:<br>Describe the structure, composition and properties of various chemical substances.<br>Plan the synthesis of inorganic and organic substances resulting in the successful synthesis of the compounds.<br>Characterize substances based upon analysis of their physical and chemical properties.<br>Use theories of microscopic properties to explain macroscopic behavior.<br>Explain the role of energy in determining structure and reactivity.<br>Employ chemical theory to explain the rate and outcome of chemical reactions.
