 \"005\"<\/a>1)  Foundation Courses<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Biomolecular Science concentrators must complete the following core courses:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Biology 150: Evolutionary Foundations of Biodiversity<\/em>
Biology 227: Cell Biology<\/em>
Biology 233:\u00a0Intermediate Genetics<\/em>
Chemistry 125:\u00a0Structural Chemistry and Equilibrium<\/em> -OR- Chemistry 122: Introductory Chemistry<\/em>
Chemistry 126:\u00a0Chemical Reactions<\/em>
Chemistry 247\/253 and 248\/254:\u00a0Organic Chemistry and\u00a0Synthesis Laboratory
<\/em>Chemistry 379\/373:\u00a0Biochemistry I and Laboratory Research in Biochemistry<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

2)  Advanced Electives<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Students must select at least two level III electives from a set of approved courses including:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Biology 315: Principles of Bioinformatics<\/em>
Biology 324: Evolutionary Genetics<\/em>
Biology 347: BioChemistry of Adaptation<\/em>
Biology 364:  <\/em>Molecular Biology<\/em>
Biology 372: Developmental Biology<\/em>
Biology 382: Immunology<\/em>
Biology 383: Evolutionary Biology<\/em>
Biology 391: Selected Topics in Biology (when appropriate, by petition)<\/em>
Chemistry 360: Medicinal Chemistry<\/em>
Chemistry 384: Bioanalytical Chemistry<\/em>
Chemistry 385: Biochemistry II<\/em>
Chemistry 391: Selected Topics in Chemistry (when appropriate, by petition)<\/em>
Computer Science 315: Bioinformatics<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Other 300-level courses may be allowed only after Biomolecular Science committee review.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3)  Experiential Learning Component<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Participation in an experimentally-based research experience or employment that takes biomolecular sciences beyond the traditional classroom is required of each concentrator. This can occur either on or off campus. This activity must be approved by the Biomolecular Science Director and presented to the Biomolecular Science Community at the annual Biomolecular Science research Symposium.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The following form is to be submitted by the fall of your senior year, Student Plan for Experiential Learning Component (ELC)<\/a> .<\/p>\n\n\n\n
