Major Requirements
Thirty-six credits including Chemistry 115, 223, 224, 230, 320, 331, 332 and
450.
Biochemistry 321 and 422 may be included as part of the Chemistry major.
Program Considerations
Potential majors are advised to schedule Mathematics 121-122 and Physics 121-122
(or Physics 112-113) in the freshman and sophomore years so they may enroll
in Chemistry 331-332 in the junior year.
Completion of an independent research project normally culminating in a Senior
Thesis is recommended.
Students bound for graduate school should make careful course selections to
support their particular area of emphasis; participation in research, completion
of Chemistry 411 and 412, Mathematics 210 and 211 should be considered. Experience
with calculus based physics (Physics 121-122) is preferred over Physics 112-113.
