The Premedical Science Program is comprised of three semesters aimed to prepare students for entry into the Preclinical Science Medical Program offered at CHSSU. The Premedical Science Program at CHSSU permits students to earn the required 94 credit hours of sciences required for entry into the Preclinical Science Program at CHSSU.
CHSSU will evaluate transfer credits on a case-by-case basis. CHSSU reserves the right to refuse transfer credits. All college-level transfer credits must be submitted with an official transcript (translated in English). CHSSU is only able to recognize and accept a grade of "C" or higher in order to gain transfer credit.
Algebra I is a foundational math course that introduces students to algebraic concepts such as equations, functions, and graphs. It covers topics like linear equations, inequalities, systems of equations, exponents, polynomials, and rational expressions. Successful completion of Algebra I provides students with problem-solving skills and a strong foundation for advanced math courses. It is an essential course that helps students apply algebraic concepts to real-world situations.
Algebra II is an advanced math course that builds upon the concepts learned in Algebra I. It delves deeper into topics such as quadratic equations, exponential and logarithmic functions, matrices, complex numbers, and trigonometry. By studying Algebra, students develop a deeper understanding of algebraic principles and their applications. This course helps students refine their problem-solving skills and prepares them for more advanced math courses, such as pre-calculus and calculus. Algebra II provides a solid foundation for students pursuing careers in fields such as engineering, physics, computer science, and economics.
The General Biology I and General Biology II courses serve as foundational science courses for science majors and also provide a general education in science for non-majors. These courses utilize an interdisciplinary approach emphasizing the scientific method and the relevance of biology to society. Core concepts include: the scientific method; evolution; structure and function; flow of genetic information, storage and exchange; energy and matter pathways and transformations; and systems biology. These courses expose students to a broad array of biological concepts that will guide them in constructing and developing skills that they can apply to real-world situations. Lecture and laboratory components will emphasize the acquisition and integration of knowledge using the scientific method as the basis for inquiry and analysis.
This course introduces the fundamental concepts of organic chemistry and biochemistry allowing students to appreciate their impact on everyday life. Topics include physical and chemical properties of hydrocarbons: alkanes, alkenes and arenes; halogen derivatives; hydroxyl compounds: alcohols and phenols; carbonyl compounds: aldehydes and ketones; carboxylic acids and esters; nitrogen compounds; and biomolecules: carbohydrates, proteins, and lipids.
Chemistry is a fundamental science. It touches every aspect of our lives; from the air we breathe to the food that we eat. Chemistry is the science that describes matter; its properties, the changes it undergoes and the resulting energy changes. The principles you will learn in this course are the foundation of all branches of chemistry: Organic (study of carbon and hydrogen compounds), Inorganic (compounds which do not contain carbon), analytical (detection and identification of substances) and biochemistry (chemistry of chemical processes in living organisms).
Physics is concerned with the physical properties of substances and the interaction of energy and matter. Physics is a science that deals with matter and energy and their interactions. It is concerned with systems, laws, models, principles, and theories that explain the physical behaviour of our world and the universe. Physics is regarded as a fundamental scientific discipline since all advances in technology can be traced either directly or indirectly to the physical laws and theories.
The Physics Syllabus is redesigned with a greater emphasis on the application of scientific concepts and principles. Such an approach is adopted in order to develop those long-term transferrable skills of ethical conduct, teamwork, problem solving, critical thinking, innovation and communication. In addition, it encourages the use of various teaching and learning strategies to inculcate these skills while, at the same time catering to multiple intelligences and different learning styles and needs. The syllabus will assist students to develop positive values and attitudes towards the physical components of the environment and will also provide a sound foundation for those who wish to pursue further studies in science.
Research for publication is an important part of a career in the sciences. Medical Research I and II offer insight into the research, writing, and publication process. Students will review and analyze scholarly publications, including the structure and style of science writing, and learn to write their own articles suitable for submission to peer-reviewed journals. Students will develop skills in academic research, writing, revision, editing, and proper citation.
