One of the defining traits of the BJU chemistry program is the emphasis on laboratory work. From your freshman year, you?ll use modern methods of chemical analysis to explore significant concepts and principles of chemistry. You?ll study a wide variety of topics, such as the quantum theory of the atom, chemical equilibrium and reaction mechanisms.
Most chemistry classes have a laboratory component in addition to the lecture, so you?ll learn how to think like a scientist through weekly experiments and reports that you give.
Your laboratory work culminates in a research project during your senior year, where you?ll be a member of a research team with your peers. During first semester your team will search scientific journals and formulate an original research project that you?ll implement in the lab during the second semester.
