Arts, Letters and Science — Chemistry Arts, Letters and Science — 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, 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. BACCALAUREATE DEGREE REQUIREMENTS The Department of Chemistry is approved and certified by the American Chemical Society. Two options are offered which lead to the bachelor of arts or bachelor of science degree in chemistry. The certification option meets all the requirements of the ACS and graduates' names are submitted to the ACS and certified by the department. The non-certified option does not meet the requirements of the ACS and is intended for students who do not plan to do graduate work in chemistry nor seek employment as chemists. It is suitable for 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. Departmental Major (ACS Certified—Forty-seven quarter hours of chemistry in addition to Chemistry 121, 122 and 123 are required, with specific courses as follows: Chemistry 213, 311, 312, 313, 341, 342, 343, 451, 452, 460, 480 (two hours minimum) and one course selected from the following: Chemistry 444, 446, 473, and 475; in addition, mathematics through calculus and Physics 261 through 266 are required. Fifteen hours of German or 9-15 hours of computer language or their equivalent is strongly recommended but not required. Additional courses in mathematics and physics are recommended for students who plan to do graduate work in physical chemistry. Departmental Major (Non-certified)—The required chemistry courses are: Chemistry 121, 122, 123, 213, 311, 312, 313, 341, 342 and at least three courses selected from the following: Chemistry 307, 343, 444, 446, 451, 452, 460. 473 and 475; in addition mathematics through Calculus and either Physics 261 through 266 or 111 through 116 are required. Students desiring this major must plan their program with the Chemistry Department and get approval from the chairman before starting Chemistry 341. An overall average grade point of 2.0 or better in chemistry courses taken is required of all majors. Departmental Minor—A minimum of twenty-seven quarter hours with courses as follows: Chemistry 121, 122, 123, 311 and at least two courses selected from the following: Chemistry 213, 301, 305, 307, 312, 313. Teaching Major—The teaching major consists of a mini- umm of forty-four quarter hours of chemistry with courses as follows: Chemistry 121,122, 123, 213, 311, 312, 341 and at least three additional courses selected from the following: Chemistry 307, 313, 342, 343, 451, 452, 460; in addition, mathematics through Calculus, and Physics 261 through 266. Teaching Minor—A minimum of twenty-eight quarter hours with courses as follows: Chemistry 121, 122, 123, 213, 311, 312.

Introduction to Chemistry — A lecture-demonstration course for students with no previous chemistry background and who are not majoring in areas requiring further chemistry. This course should not be taken if other chemistry courses are to be taken by the student. Five lecture-demonstrations a week. AWS (5) PS111. General Chemistry — Fundamentals of Inorganic Chemistry. Designed primarily for students of agriculture, forestry, family life, and some other fields of Life Science. Prerequisite: Satisfactory mathematics score on the ACT entrance examination or completion of Mathematics 101 with a grade of C or better. Three lectures, one recitation and one 3-hour laboratory period a week. A (5) PS112. Elementary Organic Chemistry—Elementary study of the compounds of carbon. Prerequisite: Chemistry 111 or equivalent. Three lectures, one recitation and one 3-hour laboratory period a week. W (5) 114 115
