The Chemistry Department provides instruction in the basic principles of chemistry, shows students how to collect and analyze data, and prepares students to use the scientific method to solve problems in and out of the laboratory.
The Chemistry Department offers Bachelor of Science, Bachelor of Arts, and Associate in Science degrees in chemistry. The bachelor's degree in Chemistry allows students to tailor the degree to their interests and career goals while providing training in the essential areas of chemistry. Students also may choose to pursue concentrations in specialty areas like Biochemistry, Chemical Physics, Environmental Chemistry, and Industrial Chemistry.
The department participates in interdisciplinary programs to prepare students for successful completion of professional programs in medicine, dentistry, optometry, veterinary medicine, physical therapy, occupational therapy, pharmacy, and others. In addition, the department prepares students interested in pursuing advanced degrees in such areas as chemistry, chemical engineering, biochemistry, pharmacology, toxicology, business, and law, careers in the chemical or pharmaceutical industries, or careers in education.
Students interested in pursuing careers in chemistry or a related field should have completed four years of high school mathematics in a college preparatory curriculum (at least through advanced algebra and trigonometry) and three years of high school science that includes broad exposure to areas of chemistry and physics.
