Department of Chemistry and Biological Science
Students research the structure and nature of substances and closely examine the wonders of life phenomena.

"Chemistry" is a field of study whose research covers the nature of substances as well as their potentialities starting from the molecular level. Building on this foundation, "Biological Science" seeks to understand the nature of life phenomena by investigating the nature of molecules and their mutual effects.
Today, the role that these two fields of study play is great and the Department aims to contribute to their development as a science based on the keywords of environment, life, resources and information, and to the advancement of industry which assists in the welfare of humankind and in the building of a better society. Thus, students study the five basic areas of inorganic chemistry, organic chemistry, physical chemistry, analytical chemistry and biological science. By doing so, we aim to support students in becoming researchers who can cover various areas, to cultivate knowledge, technology and methodologies fit for a technical expert and to assist in their ability to exercise flexible analysis. We have prepared a curriculum that can respond to students' desire to study by implementing various lectures on such topics as the fundamentals to cutting-edge research, several experimentbased courses for students to conduct tests on their own and courses where they can experience society or industries.
