2019-2020 Calendar Changes to Existing Biochemistry Programs and Course Offerings

There are some changes to existing Biochemistry programs and course offerings in the upcoming academic year that you will need to take into consideration when choosing your courses for both the Fall 2019 and Winter 2020 semesters.

If you have any questions or if any of these changes cause program difficulties when you register please contact us at bcadvice@mun.ca.

Information about the Department of Biochemistry is available on the department web site at http://www.mun.ca/biochem

Program Changes:

  1. Fall 2019 and Winter 2020 we will be introducing two new dedicated laboratory courses: Biochemistry 3906 (Nutritional Biochemistry and Metabolism Laboratory) and Biochemistry 3907 (Molecular Biology Laboratory). Biochemistry 3907 will be offered in Fall and Biochemistry 3906 will be offered in Winter.

  2.  We will be removing the laboratory portion which currently exists in Biochemistry 3107 (Nucleic Acid Biochemistry and Molecular Biology). This will then become a lecture only course and will be renumbered as Biochemistry 3207 (Nucleic Acid Biochemistry and Molecular Biology). (Fall offering only)  

  3. We will be removing the laboratory portion which currently exists in Biochemistry 3106 (Metabolism). This will then become a lecture only course and will be renumbered as Biochemistry 3206 (Metabolism). (Fall and Winter offerings) 

 Further Course Changes: 

  1.  Biochemistry 2600 (Introduction to Human Nutrition) will be offered Fall (slot 16) and will no longer be offered in Winter, beginning Fall 2019. 

  2.  Biochemistry 2005 (Food, Food Safety, and Health) will be offered Winter and will no longer be offered in Fall, beginning Fall 2019. 

  3.  Biochemistry 4002 (Biochemical Regulation) will not be offered in the 2019-2020 academic year  

  4.  Biochemistry 4103 (Prokaryotic Gene Regulation) will not be offered in the 2019-2020 academic year  

  5.  Biochemistry 4230 (Lipid & Lipoprotein Metabolism) will not be offered in the 2019-2020 academic year  

  6.  Biochemistry 4240 (Nutrigenetics and Nutrigenomics) will not be offered in the 2019-2020 academic year  

  7.  Biochemistry 4231 (Molecular Biology of the Bacterial-Human Interface) is a special topics course that will be offered Winter 2020 

  8.  Biochemistry 4502 will be offered Fall 2019 and not in Winter 2020

  9. Biochemistry 3052 (Food Microbiology) will be offered Winter 2020 and not in Fall
