Biochemistry for Engineers

Catalog description

This course is aimed at familiarizing engineering students with basic principles of biochemistry with emphasis placed on the relationship between chemical structure and function of major classes of biomolecules in the living cell. The chemistry underlying a number of key cellular processes will be covered in some detail. Also, some industrial and/or biomedical applications of, for example, enzymes will be briefly discussed. | Prerequisite: CM-UY 2213 and CM-UY 2614 or instructor's/advisor's permission
