PROGRAM
OF EMPHASIS
Department: Chemistry
Title: Biochemistry (for students entering
prior to 2007 fall)
A designated POE for biochemistry requires replacing certain chemistry courses in the Chemistry POE with selected biology courses. Its structure is based on recommendations prepared by the American Society for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology.

Note: Biochemistry and related subjects can be studied at the Catholic University
in Lille, France, or at the Philipps University in Marburg, Germany.
Calculus I and II might be taken in summer school to provide an opportunity for
language preparation. Alternatively,
language might be studied abroad during the summers prior to the junior year.
