Overview

Chemistry - Chemical Biology at Boston University is designed to meet the educational needs of students who wish to pursue a BA in Chemistry but who have a particular interest in pursuing a deep understanding of biological phenomena at the atomic and molecular level, and in the application of chemical approaches to interrogate and manipulate biological systems.

Highlights

Compared to the traditional Chemistry major, the BA in Chemistry–Chemical Biology Specialization provides the same fundamental grounding in general, organic, and inorganic chemistry but diverges partway through the physical chemistry sequence to focus on biophysical chemistry and other advanced coursework. Majors offered by the Biochemistry & Molecular Biology program and in the Department of Chemistry also allow students to explore the molecular biosciences but with different focuses and objectives, as described in this Bulletin.
