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 />
