The department focuses on providing students with individual attention, promoted through small lecture and lab classes taught by professors committed to one-on-one and small-group interactions.
Chemistry majors consistently perform well on a comprehensive national assessment and regularly gain admission into top graduate and medical programs. The Chemistry department, however,?is phasing in a more flexible revised curriculum?motivated by?several factors:
- Student demand for a program in biological chemistry
- Facilitation of study abroad
- Changes in accreditation guidelines of the American Chemical Society (ACS)
- Recommendations by an external review
- 2015 MCAT changes that emphasize biological and de-emphasize organic chemistry
