# For biochemistry major students, there are two different options to follow to be certified by the
American Chemistry Society (ACS), (this is not required to graduate)
Chemistry Lab (CHEM 451L) and at least one semester of TAS Research Honors as electives
Chemistry Lab (CHEM 451L), Instrumental Analysis Lecture (CHEM 427) and Instrumental
Analysis Lab (CHEM 427L) as electives
RE Although no additional electives are required to graduate, the Biochemistry Program strongly recommends taking optional recommended electives (see list of the recommended elective courses from biochemistry major requirements at www.ramapo.edu/catalog)
Biochemistry Program strongly recommends taking TAS Research Honors courses (SRSH 301,
302, 401 and 402) during the 3rd and 4th year for hands-on research experience. Students who
complete all of TAS Research courses (SRSH 301, 302, 401, and 402) will graduate with TAS
Research Honors Distinction.

and skills learned during a student’s progression through the major with a significant writing
component. In undertaking this course, students will demonstrate: a thorough understanding of
the relevant biochemistry material, an ability to apply problem-solving strategies, oral and written
