B.S. in Chemical Biology - Concentration in
Bioanalytical Chemistry
The extreme complexity - and fragility - of biological molecules has
made it necessary to develop special techniques and instrumentation
for their detection and analysis. These methods were employed in the
Human Genome Project, and have become vital in drug development
efforts and in the field called Chemical Ecology. The bioanalytical
chemist is a valued scientist in medical and biomedical research and
in the pharmaceutical,flavors and fragrances industries.
The program in Bioanalytical Chemistry is built on the
foundations of Chemical Biology. After the first two years in the
regular Chemical Biology
Program, the Bioanalytical Chemistry student begins
concentrating on special techniques such as mass spectrometry, nuclear
magnetic resonance, and separations.
The Third and Fourth Years of the program are shown
