Bachelor of Science [B.S] (Biochemistry)
Field of Study:
₹9.3 L/Yr
The bachelor's degrees in Chemistry and Biochemistry includes a broad selection of courses in the sciences and in mathematics that provides an excellent background for careers in a wide range of fields in science or teaching, or as preparation for professional schools, especially medicine (including dentistry and pharmacy).
Upon completion of the series of courses prescribed by American Chemical Society guidelines, students may be certified as professional chemists and awarded the American Chemical Society Certificate in Chemistry.
Faculty and Facilities
The Committee on Professional Training of the American Chemical Society has approved the chemistry faculty, facilities, and curriculum. This is a clear statement of the quality of our program and our graduates to anyone in the field.
The permanent faculty have Ph.D.'s in chemistry, representing the major areas of the science. The small size of most major courses assures students of friendly, close contact with the faculty, allowing for hands-on learning of techniques and instrumentation. Short-term research projects with faculty are accessible to all chemistry students. The Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry is housed in the Physical Science Building and includes nine laboratories and a number of specialized instrument and project rooms.
Career Outlook
A bachelor's degree in chemistry is the minimum requirement for starting a career as a chemist. Graduate training is necessary for most research and college teaching positions. Nearly two-fifths of all chemists are involved in research and development-extending scientific knowledge and creating new products. Nearly one-fifth work in production and inspection activities. Others work as analysts in forensics or environmental laboratories, professors in colleges and universities, as consultants in industry and government agencies, and marketing or sales representatives.
Growth in demand for industrial products (plastics, man-made fibers, pharmaceuticals, and fertilizers), the recognition of the need for pollution control, and improved health care programs will increase opportunities for chemists. In addition, new and more efficient fuels or fuel cells must be developed to stem energy shortages. Larger enrollments in chemistry education in the future will increase the need for chemists to teach at universities and community colleges. In addition, there is a nationwide shortage of high school chemistry teachers. The California Council on Science and Technology estimates that for every one hundred high school chemistry job openings, there are only sixty qualified applicants. Our department is one of the only eight in the entire CSU system to have a degree program for future chemistry teachers approved by the California Commission on Teacher Credentialing. Plus, our campus has financial incentives for future science teachers that can pay for most of your college expenses.
