项目学校

多年来, we’ve found that many students change or modify their career plans as they discover new fields within science. 例如, 流行病学, 生物信息学, 医疗保健分析是我们的毕业生进入的一些职业, 但这是他们在高中时从未想过的. 出于这个原因, we keep our first year or two very flexible to allow students to switch majors or tracks to pursue new interests.

——丽莎·兰伯特博士.D., 生物学教授 and 负责本科生学习的助理副校长

的 relationships and opportunities Chatham undergraduates create with fellow students and faculty members make the four years here as productive as possible.

探索生物学学位:

生物学包括对结构的研究, 函数, interactions of living organisms at multiple levels; it is a field that is evolving rapidly. This major provides students with a broad interdisciplinary base in scientific knowledge combined with an in-depth exploration of a preferred area of interest. 的 BA degree is appropriate for students who want to demonstrate their capability in biology, 同时也想探索像教学这样的相关领域.

  • Students enjoy ready access to outdoor areas for fieldwork, including the 388-acre 伊甸堂校园-世界上第一个为研究可持续发展而建立的学术社区, 和它的林地, 流, 研究实验室.
  • Students have the opportunity for hands-on work in our large human cadaver lab.
  • Students can also leverage Pittsburgh’s tight-knit academic and medical community through connections our faculty has around the region.

神经科学基础

这门课程是为吸引广大学生而设计的. 这是一门介绍大脑和脊髓结构和功能的课程, 以及神经如何运作和交流. 的 basics of movement, sensation, language, emotion, consciousness are discussed. Emphasis is placed on contrasting normal 函数 with altered 函数 in diseases.

免疫学

This course covers fundamental principles of immunology with emphasis on molecular and cellular immunology, including antigen and antibody structure and 函数; effector mechanisms; complement; major histocompatibility complexes; and the cellular basis for the immune response.

组织学

A microscopic analysis of human and animal tissue and organ 函数 at the cellular level. 材料来自课本, 讲座, 图片, 和动画, in addition to practical application and identification of histological specimens. Recommended for students planning to apply to professional schools of medicine, 兽医, 或牙科.

“我妈妈是查塔姆国际事务学院的校友,17岁的克里斯蒂娜·奥斯汀说, 但这并不是我决定来这里的原因. 查塔姆学院是我最后考察的学校之一. 但是当我来拜访的时候, I saw that I could connect with people and have a close mentorship with professors in a way that I might not be able to do at a larger university.”
