Certificates, Programs and Minors
Rationale. The Chemistry minor is significant for students who wish
to pursue the pre-health professions and major in another area. It is
an important minor for students considering careers in which a full
science major is not required, but college-level science experience is
required.
Minor coordinator. Professor Francis Sheehan, Department of
Sciences (212.237.8951, fsheehan@jjay.cuny.edu)
Note: Students who earn the BS Degree in Forensic Science are

Total: 21
Rationale. Computers are the future. By learning to use a computer,
students are securing their tomorrows. Good computer skills will
build self-confidence and increase students’ marketability and
competence in their chosen fields. Computers also allow users to
work fast and efficiently with data and information in a way that no
other devices do.
