BC367 Learning Goals
- To learn the fundamental chemistry and biochemistry of major classes of biomolecules, including amino acids and proteins, sugars and polysaccharides, nucleotides and nucleic acids, and lipids.
- To understand how chemical reactivity, thermodynamics, and kinetics are responsible for life.
- To sharpen problem-solving skills of both a qualitative and quantitative nature and to solve problems that involve the integration and synthesis of new knowledge.
- To enhance written and oral communication skills and build confidence in oral expression in a group setting.
