新加坡PSB学院

The Bachelor of Science (Molecular Biology and Applied Chemistry) is a course that provides students with the opportunity to focus on subjects directly related to drug design and organic synthesis, medicinal chemistry and forensic science. This degree allows students to develop skills that are highly regarded and highly valued in the chemical industry.

Students will apply principles in the core areas of inorganic, organic, physical, biological, analytical, computational, materials and macromolecular chemistry. This includes practical skills such as synthesis, analytical, physical or computational chemistry laboratory work.

This course has been particularly developed to support the internationally growing biotechnology and pharmaceutical industries and provide students with a robust basis for progressing into a wide variety of chemistry-based post-graduate study and career paths.
