The chemistry major (without a concentration) leads to the Bachelor of Arts degree. This program is most appropriate?for students with a double major in another discipline. The BA is not recommended as a ?stand alone? major or for students pursuing a professional career in chemistry. The BA program is not certified by the American Chemical Society. A minimum number of chemistry courses are required so that a program of other courses suited to the individual?s interests may be developed in consultation with the student?s advisor.
