化学与生物化学

化学与生物化学

Chemistry and 生物化学 are fundamental sciences that address many of the world’s greatest challenges in such fields as human health, 能源, 材料科学, 食品安全和环境保护主义. 它们是STEM(科学)的一个组成部分, 技术, 工程和数学)运动, 哪里的专业人才需求量大.

获得化学或生物化学学士学位

亚洲博彩平台排名's programs provide a strong foundation in the basic principles of 化学 and 生物化学, engaging students in challenging coursework while offering practical, 通过实验室课程和研究的实践经验. These projects give students the unique opportunity to not only conduct independent research with our faculty, but also learn about the dissemination of new knowledge firsthand - and often have their results published in scientific journals.

我们的毕业生具备关键的, creative thinking and analytical skills needed for success in an array of careers, 包括医学, 生物技术, 法律, 法医和环境科学与教育. Many have gained admission to leading graduate schools for medicine, 医药科学, 法律及其他专业.

我们提供化学和 中等教育, which prepares students to apply for Rhode Island teacher certification for grades 7-12. 我们的双学位课程包括一个 3 + 2项目 导致B.A. 化学学士学位和学士学位.S. in engineering from either the University of Massachusetts Dartmouth or Washington University in St. 路易,还有一个 3 + 3项目 导致B.A. in 生物化学 from 亚洲博彩平台排名 and a Doctor of Pharmacy from the University of Saint Joseph.

节目焦点:欣欣向荣的气氛

 We train students to use our equipment, some of which is very sophisticated. 我们把他们安排在学习这项技术的项目中.

We don’t have graduate students; we don’t have postdocs. 我们非常敬业, skilled and eager-to-learn undergraduate students who want to be in the lab learning how to do research. So, we train them and that’s what they’re doing – they’re doing graduate-level, 即将发表的现实研究.

实习和研究机会

Internships and research opportunities provide critical hands-on learning and real-world experiences that benefit our 化学 and 生物化学 students once they graduate. 在教员的指导下, all 化学 and 生物化学 majors are required to participate in undergraduate research leading to a senior thesis.

Many of our students have the opportunity to participate in 10-week summer fellowships, where they work on different research projects with our dedicated faculty members. They present their results during an annual conference at the University of Rhode Island that is attended by students from all universities and colleges in the state.
