化学 小 and ASI Programs
No specific course sequences are suggested for students wishing to include chemistry minors or areas of special interest in their programs. 而, those students should consult with the 化学 department head (or designated faculty member) to design appropriate sequences. For the purpose of completing a minor in 化学, the Organic 化学 sequence is exempt from the 100-200 level limit.
Suggested careers for biochemistry majors:
- 分析化学家
- 生物
- 医疗科学家
- 法医科学家
- 药理学家
- Nanotechnologist
