Developed a new course

 

CHEM 4131 was developed as a new laboratory course for meeting requirements towards a BS degree in Biochemistry

 

Created a new ACS certified Degree Plan for the Department of Chemistry

 

Major architect in the creation of the ACS accredited BS in Biochemistry degree plan (offered by the Department of Chemistry). Created a compelling case for this STEM-specific educational track benefitting the students of UTEP by articulating Need, Student Demand, Enrollment Projections, Resources, and ACS Accreditation as part of the manifest.
