Department of Biological Sciences

Program Description

tudents pursuing the baccalaureate degree at the Department of Biological Sciences will be systematically trained by the accomplished faculty members. This training will allow students to fully understand the essential and fundamental issues of life sciences so to maximize the student's potential as a biological scientist. The undergraduate education of our department focuses on offering superb training opportunity for those interested in biological sciences and biotechnology. Courses offered by the Department emphasize the knowledge in areas of fundamental biology and biotechnology, directly or indirectly, relevant to human health and disease. In addition, the curriculum also provides superb opportunities for those interested in the medical sciences in the future.
Courses required for completion of the undergraduate program include topics under intensive research by many laboratories in the graduate school as well as those considered essential ones by biomedical or bio-related industries. These include Cell biology, Biochemistry, Molecular biology, Genetics, Developmental biology, Neurobiology, and Biological physics as core courses. For those interested in biotechnology or bioengineering, the following courses are also offered: Applied biological physics, Microbial and cell biotechnology, Reaction engineering, Genetic engineering, Food engineering, and Environmental biotechnology. It is mandatory for students to take two experimental courses-offered together with biochemistry and cell biology- to acquire lab experiences during their undergraduate program.
