The biochemistry portion covers essential biological molecular structures and systems such as carbohydrates, proteins, and lipids.

Section Expectation

This course combines a lecture format worth 80% and a lab component worth 20% of the total. In addition to attending lecture, students should expect to spend 3-4 hours per week in consistent study and problem-solving. Solving recommended text problems is the best way to do this.

Evaluation

Students will be evaluated with three mid-term exams, a final exam, and an online (BrightSpace) quiz average, as well as a lab component of the course.
