EASTER, Program CoordinatorDR. MAURY E. HOWARDDR. DEBORAH E. OTISThe Department of Chemistry curriculum is designedto provide opportunities for curious and interested studentsto immerse themselves in a concentrated study of thevarious principles of classical and contemporary chemicalknowledge. From introductory to upper level courses,applications are made of the basic theories and methods ofchemical investigation, with an emphasis on problemsolving.The chemistry program accommodates chemistrymajors, other science majors, pre-med/pre-vet students, andstudents planning to enter the health and allied healthprofessions, as well as students wishing to teach chemistryat the secondary school level. Chemistry majors areprepared for careers in industry, business, government, andacademia.Major RequirementsThose courses designed for non-science majors,including CHEM 105, cannot be counted toward themajor in chemistry (63-65 semester hours), but may becounted toward the degree (120 semester hours). Thestudent’s academic program must be planned carefully ifspecific goals are to be achieved. Close coordination withthe student’s adviser is essential. In order to meet basicrequirements in the major and for participation in the fouryeargraduation guarantee, the following course of study isdetermined by the year of entry.To complete the college’s requirement in the area ofcomputer literacy, students majoring in chemistry mustshow a proficiency in: 1) the use of e-mail, 2) the use ofword processing, 3) the use of the Internet, and 4) the useof multimedia software. This proficiency is demonstratedby completing assignments in several courses required inthe major, which include CHEM 118, 210, 311, 312, 322,411, 412, 422, and 437.Students seeking certification as secondary teachers ofchemistry must also successfully complete either EES 130or EES 132, in order to satisfy the requirement in the areaof earth science.Bachelor of Science:COURSE NUMBER AND TITLECHEM 117College Chemistry ICHEM 118College Chemistry IICHEM 210Analytical ChemistryCHEM 260Inorganic ChemistryCHEM 300Chemical Literature SurveyCHEM 311Organic Chemistry ICHEM 312Organic Chemistry IICHEM 321Organic Chemistry Laboratory ICHEM 322Organic Chemistry IISEM.HRS.See continuation of choices next page444313311
