CHEM 311 - Computers in Chemistry
An analysis of chemical problems using spreadsheets, mathematical software packages, computer programming, and computational chemistry methods.
Biochemistry
The Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry provides a strong education that prepares its students to function and thrive in our society. The department attempts to increase the problem-solving and critical-thinking skills of all students.
The department offers both B.A. and B.S. degrees. Non-science students learn about the scientific and chemical aspects of everyday life that allow them to understand issues related to the environment, energy production, disease prevention, and nutrition. Students of the sciences learn the fundamentals of chemistry that control the interactions of elements and molecules. Building on an understanding of mathematics, physics, and biology, biochemistry majors receive a background in the major disciplines of chemistry, including inorganic, analytical, organic, and physical, and take in-depth coursework in biochemistry. In addition, students learn the protocols and techniques for working safely with chemicals and biochemicals. The department recognizes the importance of the pursuit of new knowledge in developing skilled scientists and productive members of society and encourages its students to participate in research projects and collaborative educational opportunities.
