The Arts and Sciences Chemistry Major is designed for students interested in
going to graduate school in an area of chemistry. While this major can be taken
by students intending on going into the chemical industry following graduation,
the preferred degree for seeking employment in the chemical industry is the
ACS Certified Degree.
In addition to the Chemistry courses listed below a Biochemistry Major must complete
Math 1220, 1230, 2720, Phys 2050, 2060, 2070, 2080. This chemistry major must
