生物化学学士学位

化学，所谓的中央自然科学，是物理学和生物学之间的桥梁。物质的原子和分子结构与性质是研究物理世界和理解生命系统的基础。纳米技术和基因组学是一门相对较新的科学，其源于上一代在化学分析和理论上的进步。纽约大学化学系有着悠久而辉煌的历史，其历史可追溯至美国化学成立之前。 1876年在大学成立学会（ACS）。该系已被ACS指定为纪念这一事件的里程碑。ACS系主任兼第一任校长John W. Draper教授是摄影发展的早期先驱，与Samuel FB Morse教授合作。已故的Gertrude B. Elion是198
The Department of Chemistry has a long tradition in the College of Arts and Science, dating back well before the founding of the American Chemical Society at New York University in 1876. Professor John W. Draper, the first president of the society and chair of the department, was a remarkable polymath: chemist, physician, philosopher, historian, and pioneering photographer.<br><br>The department has undertaken a major development plan, strengthening its faculty, instructional laboratories, course offerings, and research facilities in the areas of physical, biophysical, bioorganic, and biomedical chemistry, as well as in chemical biology, nanoscience, and materials sciences. Qualified undergraduates are strongly encouraged to participate in research as early as their sophomore year of study. The department houses state-of-the-art laboratory facilities for its undergraduate chemistry courses.<br><br>Majoring in chemistry at NYU provides strong preparation for graduate study in chemistry and biochemistry, professional education in medicine, dentistry, or patent law, and careers in industrial or pharmaceutical chemistry and biotechnology.<br><br>The department offers majors in chemistry, biochemistry, and global public health/science with a concentration in chemistry. Students have the opportunity to earn either a B.A. or B.S. in the chemistry major. A selection of elective advanced courses, undergraduate and graduate, can be combined (in consultation with the director of undergraduate studies) to provide a broad, varied program of study in chemistry or an undergraduate specialization in organic, biochemical, physical, or theoretical chemistry. The opportunity to participate in scientific research as an undergraduate is one of the most exciting features of a chemistry major. Research allows you to work alongside graduate students, postdoctoral fellows and faculty to develop new ideas to solve real-world problems and make new discoveries. Many of our students produce results that lead to publications and research is also a great preparation for graduate school and a wide range of chemistry careers.
