The Chemistry Department offers several tracks or programs of study designed to meet each student's career goals. The department offers a Bachelor of Science degree in chemistry with two tracks from which to choose and a pre-pharmacy program for students interested in applying to a pharmacy program. The program is approved by the American Chemical Society (ACS). We provide student organizations that allow our Chemistry majors an opportunity to interactact with their own peers outside of class, allow them an opportunity to network with professionals in their area of interest, and perform community services.

Students in the Valdosta State University chemistry program develop critical thinking skills, learn to identify and outline problems, and become proficient problem solvers. Students are prepared for graduate work in chemistry and for employment in industry or government agencies.
