Biochemistry Introduction
Students will gain real-world experience as they discover the chemistry behind different biological processes and the synthesis of biologically active molecules.
Our state of the art labs allow students to gain a hands-on experience as they explore the function and structure of proteins, carbohydrates, lipids, and nucleic acids. Students can then apply these principles to clinical diagnosis, treatment of diseases, nutrition and health, and agriculture.
In this program, you will:
- Study the chemistry behind living systems
- Learn how cells, enzymes, and proteins function
- Gain hands-on experience using lab techniques common in biological and medical research
Graduates are prepared to enter science-based careers or continue their education in medical, dental, pharmacy, or graduate programs.
