Full-time form

1. Have basic knowledge of general chemistry. 2. Know the program material of the basic courses of inorganic, organic and physical chemistry at the undergraduate level. 3. Know the program material of special courses of chemical kinetics and theoretical electrochemistry at the undergraduate level. 4. To have the basics of knowledge in the chemistry of natural compounds and mechanisms of inorganic and organic reactions at the level of the program of the basic courses of organic and physical chemistry of the bachelor's degree.

As part of the "Biophysical Chemistry" course, the basic principles of applying physicochemical approaches to describe the structure and properties of biomolecules, as well as the physicochemical foundations of biological processes, are studied. Issues of enzymatic kinetics, inhibition and regulation of enzymatic activity, mechanisms of chemical reactions, transport processes and processes of electron transfer involving biomolecules and biological membranes, thermodynamics of biochemical processes are considered.
