To register, select another departmental course and develop a contract detailing additional work required for graduate credit. Course may be repeated. Contract must be approved by instructor, department chair, and Director of the Master of Education Program. DEPARTMENT Chemistry Chain Dr. Barry Lloyd Location: Science Lab, Room 502M Telephone Contact: Margaret Read 801-626-6952 Professors: Charles Davidson, Todd Johnson, Andreas Lippert, Barry Lloyd, Spencer Seager, Stephen Stoker, Edward Walker; Associate Professors: Laine Berghout, Don Da vies, Mchelle More; Assistant Professors: Kyle Ashby, Timothy Herzog I he Department of Chemistry is approved and certified by the American Chemical Society (ACS). Two options are offered which lead to the bachelor of arts or bachelor of science degree in Chemistry. Option 1 meets all the requirements of the ACS and the graduates' names are submitted to the ACS and certified by the department. Option 2 does not meet the requirements of the ACS, but provides a good foundation in chemistry. It is suitable for such students as pre-medical, pre-dental, etc., who need a sound chemical background. A teaching major leading to the bachelor of science degree with a secondary education licensure, a departmental minor, and a teaching minor are also available. A two-year chemical technician program is also offered. This program, leading to an associate of applied science degree or a certificate of skill proficiency, is designed to emphasize skills required for employment as a technician in chemical laboratories. Chemistry Major / Teaching Major bachelors degree (bs) » Program Prerequisite: Not required for Chemistry major. Chemistry Teaching majors must meet the Teacher Education admission and licensure requirements (see Teacher Education Department). » Minor: Not required for Options I and II; required for Teaching Major. » Grade Requirements: Average GPA of 2.00 or better in Chemistry courses. Also refer to the general grade requirements for graduation on page 37. Teaching majors must achieve an overall GPA of 3.00 for admission to the Teacher Education program and have a "C" or better in chemistry courses. » Credit Hour Requirements: A total of 120 credit hours is required for graduation - 75 of these are required within Option 1, 71 are required within Option 2, and 43 are required within the teaching major, plus the credits required by the Teacher Education department. A total of 40 upper division credit hours (in courses numbered 3000 and above) is required for all Chemistry majors to fulfill University graduation requirements - 37 of these are earned from required courses within Option 1 and 33 from required courses within Option 2. Advisement All Chemistry majors should meet with the Chemistry Department Chair at least annually for course and program advisement. Call 801-626-6952 for information and to arrange an appointment. Admission Requirements Declare your program of study (see page 18). There are no special admission or application requirements for the Chemistry major. Teaching majors must meet the Teacher Education admission and licensure requirements (see Teacher Education Department). General Education Refer to pages 37-43 for Bachelor of Science requirements.
