Illinois Institute of Technology
Biological, Chemical and Physical Sciences
In an ever more technological world, a substantive understanding
of the sciences is a requirement for many professions,
including careers in science, education and the health professions
and increasingly including careers in such areas as law
and business. In the latter cases, a technical background can
serve as a unique and sought after qualification.
The Department of Biological, Chemical and Physical Sciences
offers traditional Bachelor of Science (B.S.) degrees in each
area of biology, chemistry and physics, as well as an interdisciplinary
Bachelor of Science in Molecular Biochemistry and
Biophysics (M.B.B.), which combines elements of all three disciplines.
Traditional programs serve as a solid foundation for
entry into graduate and medical school and for jobs in both
the government and the private sector. This is also true of the
M.B.B. major, which is part of the honors medical programs
with Rush University and the Chicago Medical School.

Biological, Chemical and Physical Sciences
The department also provides specialized bachelor’s degree
programs that integrate the sciences with law and business;
these include honors programs, similar to the M.B.B. honors
medical program, which guarantee admission into IIT’s
Chicago Kent College of Law or Stuart School of Business.
In addition, the department offers bachelor’s degrees in each
discipline of biology, chemistry and physics within the
Applied Sciences for the Professions Program (see page 34);
while still rigorous, these curricula allow students to study a
somewhat wider variety of subjects than is possible in the traditional
programs. Finally, research honors programs are
offered in biology, chemistry and physics.
Details of the four traditional programs, as well as the specialized
degree programs, can be found on the following pages.
