Chemistry electives can be chosen from the following list: Chemistry<br />
4028, 4030, 4110, 4210, 4310, 4410, and 45109. Chemistry 3094 and 3099<br />
may be used to satisfy the science-elective requirement, but not in<br />
place <strong>of</strong> the required advanced chemistry elective.<br />

Mathematics <br />
1125 and 1126 are prerequisites for Mathematics 2111 and<br />
must be elected if placement test indicates. Mathematics 1125 and 1126<br />
may count as hours toward a Bachelor <strong>of</strong> Arts degree in chemistry.<br />
Direct placement in 2111 can lead to bypass credit for 1125 and 1126.<br />

Physics 1031, 1032 may be used as prerequisites for Chemistry 4310 in<br />
the B.A. program only.<br />

Six hours <strong>of</strong> science electives may be taken at the 1000 level. Nine<br />
hours <strong>of</strong> science electives must be selected from courses numbered<br />
3000 or above. The following courses cannot be used to fulfill the<br />
science-elective requirement: Biology 4083, 4093; Earth and Environmental<br />
Sciences 4005, 4006; Mathematics 4010, 4020, 4030; Physics<br />
4004, 4091.<br />

All electives must be approved by the department. The departmental<br />
advisor is available to assist students in planning coursework for the<br />
various options.<br />
8<br />
B.A. candidates who do not take Chemistry 4028 or 4030 to satisfy the<br />
<strong>University</strong>’s oral communication requirement must take Film, Theatre<br />
and Communication Arts 2650.<br />
9<br />
Biological Sciences 3104 may substitute for Chemistry 4510.<br />
Before registration for the junior year, the student and his or her<br />
advisor will develop a written program <strong>of</strong> study to accomplish the<br />
student’s career or pre-pr<strong>of</strong>essional school objectives. Such a program<br />
will prepare the student to pursue a variety <strong>of</strong> options. Possibilities<br />
for interdisciplinary areas are geochemistry, chemical physics, clinical<br />
chemistry, chemical sales and management. Preparation for pr<strong>of</strong>essional<br />
schools <strong>of</strong> medicine, dentistry, business, law, and library science<br />
are other possibilities. Programs can be designed to assist those students<br />
seeking employment in such fields as food and drug inspection,<br />
sales <strong>of</strong> scientific instruments for chemical research and quality control,<br />
scientific journalism and advertising, and other similarly related<br />
careers.<br />
Minor in Chemistry<br />
An undergraduate minor in chemistry may be obtained by completing<br />
21 credit hours in chemistry with a grade <strong>of</strong> C or better in each<br />
course. Twelve <strong>of</strong> the hours shall be at the 2000-level or higher. All<br />
students who minor in chemistry must take Chemistry 1028. At least<br />
nine hours must be completed at UNO.<br />
Honors in Chemistry<br />
An honors program is available to chemistry majors. Successful<br />
completion <strong>of</strong> the program will result in graduation with Honors in<br />
Chemistry. To be eligible for admission to the program, a student must<br />
have a 3.25 overall average and a 3.5 in chemistry. To remain in the<br />
program a student must maintain these averages. Before graduation,<br />
a student must complete at least six credit hours <strong>of</strong> Chemistry 3099,<br />
including an oral defense <strong>of</strong> the honors thesis to a committee composed<br />
<strong>of</strong> a faculty thesis director, another faculty member selected by<br />
the chairman, and a representative <strong>of</strong> the Honors Program.<br />
CURRICULUM IN COMPUTER SCIENCE<br />
UNO’s computer science program is accredited by the Computing<br />
Accreditation Commission <strong>of</strong> the Accreditation Board for Engineering<br />
and Technology (CAC/ABET). To earn a Bachelor <strong>of</strong> Science Degree in<br />
Computer Science, a student must acquire 128 credit hours as described<br />
below, and must satisfy all <strong>of</strong> the requirements <strong>of</strong> the <strong>University</strong> and<br />
the College <strong>of</strong> Sciences. In addition, the following stipulations must be<br />
satisfied:<br />
1. Before enrolling in a computer science course, a student must<br />
have earned a grade <strong>of</strong> C or better in all computer science courses<br />
which are a prerequisite for it. A grade <strong>of</strong> C or better must be<br />
earned in all science courses, including mathematics and computer<br />
science, used to satisfy degree requirements.<br />
2. Computer science electives must be chosen from computer science<br />
courses numbered 3000 or above. Computer Science 3601,<br />
3611, and 4690 may not be taken for computer science elective<br />
credit.<br />
3. Mathematics electives must have a prerequisite <strong>of</strong> at least Mathematics<br />
2109 or 2112.<br />
4. The science sequence must be one <strong>of</strong>: Biology 1073, 1071, 1083,<br />
and 1081; or Biology 1073, 1071, and 2014; or Biology 1083, 1081,<br />
