Most of the employment opportunities for chemists are in industry and in various independent and governmental laboratories. In most business-related jobs in the chemical industry, a chemistry degree is a useful first degree. The second degree could be the master of business administration or a law degree.

We offer a traditional Bachelor of Science degree with a major in chemistry and a minor in a second area (biology, mathematics, physics, geosciences, psychology, etc.) that provides an excellent background for students planning careers in medicine or one of the other health sciences, in the emerging field of environmental sciences, or in virtually any technically based area.
