化学
Gain a strong foundation in the traditional areas 的化学, then add strength 三种选择之一.
In pursuing a Bachelor of Science in 化学, students receive a strong foundation in analytical, physical, organic, and inorganic chemistry before selecting one of three options leading to the degree: biochemistry and natural products, environmental 化学，或天然和合成聚合物化学.
Each option offers an advanced course of studies beyond the basic courses of the classical 本科化学课程.
Our courses demonstrate the interconnectedness of environmental concerns.
Through laboratory courses and research, students use their foundational knowledge to explore specialized areas 的化学 and gain familiarity with the actual practice 的化学.
In the final two years of the program, students must select one of three Option Areas:
- 生物化学与天然产物
The 生物化学与天然产物 option stresses a chemical approach to problems 在生命和健康科学领域. - 环境化学
Learn strategies to stress applications of fundamental chemical principles to describe 并预测化学物质在环境中的行为. - 天然和合成高分子化学
Gain an excellent background both for direct entry into industrial chemistry and graduate study in areas such as chemistry, biotechnology, or polymer science.
