It is not necessary to take all of the listed courses to prepare for advanced study in any of the subdisciplines listed. The suggested electives assume that students have taken the graduate school requirements described in the previous section. Analytical Chemistry Analytical chemistry encompasses chemical analysis along with techniques and instrumentation used for analysis.
Analytical chemists perform analyses, make chemical measurements, and design and build instruments.
Instrument building often includes computer interfacing and writing software to operate and collect data from the instrument. For optics and an introduction to electronics and electromagnetics. Biochemistry Biochemistry lies at the interface of chemistry and biology. In essence, biochemists study the chemistry associated with biological systems, typically cells and cell components. Biology 213 Genetics Biology 335 Cell Biology Chemistry 205 Biochemistry Chemistry 321 Advanced Organic Chemistry Environmental Chemistry Environmental Chemistry concerns itself with the nature and fate of chemicals in natural and human-influenced environments.
