Slabaugh. - The Chemistry curriculum provides a sound foundation in both the facts and principles of chemistry. Physics and mathematics are emphasized since these subjects are essential to an adequate understanding of chemistry. The required courses in English and the elective areas insure study in nontechnical subjects; broadening the student's general education and enabling him to relate his study of chemistry to other fields of knowledge. The Department of Chemistry offers two beginning sequences. Chemistry 111, 112, 113 is a series for students who will take chemistry for one year or less. Chemistry 121, 122, and 123 is the basic beginning sequence for students majoring in areas which require more than one year of chemistry. A maximum of fifteen quarter hours in Chemistry 111-113, and 121-123 will be accepted toward fulfilling graduation requirements. |
