2018-2019 Catalog

Chemistry

A minor in Chemistry will provide students with a solid foundation in general and organic chemistry and prepare them for graduate and professional programs that require a chemistry background. Chemistry courses also form part of the majors in Biology and Biomedical Sciences, as well as General Education offerings. Biology majors take up to five semesters of chemistry, a large part of their major requirements.
