The goal of this Targeted Infusion project is to implement an integrative B.S. degree program in Biochemistry within the Department of Chemistry. The curriculum for this program was approved by the University Faculty in the spring of 2009. The decision to offer a B.S. in Biochemistry was made following several years of feedback from our chemistry graduates that pointed to the need for an undergraduate curriculum that allows more exposure and experience in biology. As is the case with many Chemistry programs, the Chemistry program at Hampton is designed along the traditional single discipline mentality, allowing for very limited opportunity for interdisciplinary cross-fertilization. Only two entry level biology courses (introduction to Biology I&II) are required for our chemistry majors. Program integration is becoming increasingly necessary in the preparation of future scientists. With the implementation of this program, the Department of Chemistry will offer two baccalaureate degrees: the traditional B.S. degree in Chemistry, and a B.S. degree in Biochemistry. Both degree programs meet the American Chemical Society certification requirements.

这个定向输注项目的目标是在化学系内实施生物化学综合学士学位课程。该课程于2009年春季由大学学院批准。我们之所以决定开设生物化学学士学位，是因为几年来我们的化学专业毕业生反馈说，我们需要一个能让我们在生物学方面有更多接触和经验的本科课程。与许多化学项目一样，汉普顿的化学项目是按照传统的单一学科思路设计的，允许跨学科交叉施肥的机会非常有限。我们的化学专业只需要两门入门级的生物课程（生物入门i和II）。在培养未来科学家的过程中，项目整合变得越来越必要。随着该计划的实施，化学系将提供两个学士学位：传统的化学学士学位和生物化学学士学位。这两个学位课程都符合美国化学学会的认证要求。
