Biochemistry

Catalog description

This course is designed to train and educate students with essential and central concepts, principles, and applications of biochemistry. Foundational knowledge of biochemistry is essential in disciplines like medicine, nutrition, pharmacology, biotechnology, genomics, bioremediation, agriculture, bioinformatics, and in several engineering fields. The three-dimensional structures of biomolecules are explored in the context of their multi-functions and their microenvironments within living organisms’ metabolic pathways are introduced. The course enhances the ability of students to address changes, needs, and demands of their own major fields as well. The lab activity allows hands-on experience on concepts taught in lecture.
