• The Department of Chemistry offers undergraduate chemistry majors leading to both the bachelor of science (BS) degree and the bachelor of arts (BA) degree.
  • The BS program rigorously prepares students for advanced work in chemistry or a related discipline, and the degree requirements are consistent with the guidelines for certification by the American Chemical Society.
  • BS students complete a series of foundation courses in general chemistry, analytical chemistry, biological chemistry, inorganic chemistry, organic chemistry, and physical chemistry.
  • The BA degree is a more flexible program that provides a comprehensive overview of all areas of chemistry, including laboratory experiences, but can be coupled more easily with other majors or professional career paths.
