OBJECTIVES

OBJECTIVES

The major is designed espe­ ciall y for chose swdents planning a career in the health professions. T he requirements for schools of medicine , pharmacy , dentistry and med ica l tech nology are met wi thin chis major. T his program a ls o pr epa res o ne for graduate school in a var ie ty of biosc ie nce prog rams. There are exce llent oppo rtunities for caree rs in hiotechnical , pha rmace uti ca l and env ironmenta l related businesses and governmental agencies.

W hil e primaril y pro vidi ng se rv ice co u rses for ot her pro­ grams, the department does offe r cwo programs with chemi s try as the major component. T hese are Biochemistry and Ph ysical Sc i­ ence with a chemistrv emphas is. Since chemistry is th e srndy of matter and the changes it under­ goes , seq ue nces of co urses are designed to meet th e needs of scu­ dent, as they prepare for a variery of different majors chat req uire an understand ing of the nawre of mat­ ter. The objective of th ese m urses is co provide the scudent with a basic understand ing of the laws of cheo-­ rit-s of chem iscr-y such chat the sw­ denr will be able (I) co explain the bas ic phys ie,-a l and chemical proper­ ties nf matter in terms of its struc­ ture, (2) to do quantitative problem sol vi ng, (3) co ga in some leve l of proficiency in laboratory mechodol- 01,,y, and (4) to be acq uainted with basic resource material in chemistry.
