Objectives – The department offers the student the
opportunity of gaining a broad-based foundation in the
respective chemistry or physics disciplines. The department
provides training in the application of chemical and physical
principles to other fields and introduces the liberal arts student
to a basic understanding of chemistry and physics. This
course of study is designed to prepare the student for
teaching, industrial work, and graduate education.
Teacher Preparation Programs - Students seeking teacher
certification in Physical Science should refer to the Irvin
School of Education section of this catalog for Texas
certification requirements.
BIOCHEMISTRY AND MOLECULAR BIOLOGY
INTERDISCIPLINARY MAJOR
Bachelor of Arts
The major in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology (BIMB)
requires a minimum of 65 hours of science and mathematics.
Courses required include: BIOL 1306/1106, 1307/1107,
3411, 4330; CHEM 1310/1110, 1311,1111, 3401, 3402, 3410,
