Natural Sciences Chemistry such students as pre-med, pre-dental, etc., who need a sound chemical background but will not be professional chemists. This non-certified program can be completed in two academic years after the completion of freshman chemistry. In addition, a teaching major leading to the bachelor of science degree in secondary education, a departmental minor and a teaching minor are also offered. Education: 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 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, 123 is the basic beginning sequence for students majoring in areas which require more than one year of chemistry. A maximum of 15 quarter hours in Chemistry 111-113 and 121-123 will be accepted toward fulfilling graduation requirements. Professional and Career Outlook: A baccalaureate degree in chemistry provides students with a sound foundation for numerous graduate school and professional programs, including: All fields of chemistry, medicine, dentistry, pharmacology, toxicology, chemical engineering and environmental science. In addition, baccalaureate degree chemists possess skills that make them employable in a number of capacities, including: Chemical analysts, lab technicians, quality controllers, clinical chemists and researchers.
