Program Summary

Biochemistry is a course that explores the chemical processes and molecular mechanisms that occur within living organisms. It combines principles from biology and chemistry to understand the structure, function, and interactions of biomolecules such as proteins, nucleic acids, carbohydrates, and lipids. The course delves into metabolic pathways, enzyme kinetics, and regulatory mechanisms that control biological systems. It also examines the role of biochemical reactions in energy production, genetic information flow, and cellular signaling. Students learn laboratory techniques such as chromatography, spectroscopy, and electrophoresis to analyze biomolecules and their functions. The course is fundamental to fields such as medicine, biotechnology, and pharmacology, providing insights into disease mechanisms, drug development, and genetic engineering. It integrates theoretical concepts with practical applications to help students develop problem-solving and analytical skills essential for careers in research, healthcare, and industry.
