The department offers programs leading to the BA and BS degrees in chemistry. The BS degrees
are certified by the American Chemical Society.
The bachelor of science degree in chemistry requires 37.5 hours in chemistry and must
include the following courses (and corequisite labs): 111, 122, 223, 230, 260, 334, 341, 344, 361,
381, 382, 383, 391 (or 392); one of the following courses: 370, 371, 372 or 356/357; MTH 111 and
112 and either 113 or 301; and PHY 113, 114. The BS program is designed for those students who
plan a career in chemistry at the bachelor or advanced degree level.
The bachelor of science degree in chemistry with concentration in biochemistry requires
37.5 hours in chemistry and must include the following courses (and corequisite labs): 111, 122,
223, 230, 260, 334, 341, 361, 371, 372, 381, 382, 383, 391 (or 392); BIO 112, 213, 214; MTH 111, 112;
PHY 113, 114, and one additional 300-level elective in either biology or chemistry.
The bachelor of arts degree in chemistry requires 28 hours in chemistry and includes the
following courses (and corequisite labs): 111, 122, 230, 260, 341; three of the following courses
(and corequisite labs): 223, 334, 342 (or 344), 361, 371; one of the following courses: 381, 382, 383,
391 or 392; MTH 111, 112; and PHY 113 and 114. The BA degree program is designed for those
students who do not plan to do graduate work in the physical sciences but desire a stronger
background in chemistry than is provided in the chemistry minor program.
* The same numbered course cannot be repeated. Subsequent courses should be take in
consecutive order.
