".... from molecules to cells"
The Department of Chemistry, now the Department of Chemistry and Biomolecular Sciences, was one of the founding Departments
of Macquarie University, opening its doors in 1967. The University has
evolved from a small institution pioneering innovative teaching methods
located in 135 hectares of bushland to one of Australia's major research
Universities in the heart of Australia's leading
research park ...
Welcome from the Head of Department
|
Welcome to the newly created Department of Chemistry and Biomolecular
Sciences (CBMS). Our department is a merger of staff from the former
Department of Chemistry and a group of staff from the biology discipline
that study cells and biological processes from a molecular
perspective. These two areas of the university have long traditions of
teaching and research excellence. This realignment is an exciting one as
it will ensure that the innovative university can maintain its high profile
and success in these key disciplines of 21st century science. If you are a
prospective undergraduate or postgraduate student and would like further
personalised career or degree advice we would be happy for you to contact
any member of academic staff listed in this site.
