Students who make unsatisfactory scores on the placement test will not be permitted to register for Chemistry 24 until they have completed the preparatory course—Chemistry 001. It is the student's responsibility to make arrangements at the College Counseling and Testing Center to take the placement test before registration. Department of Chemistry Spencer L.

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 and thus broaden the student's general education, enabling him to relate his study of chemistry to other fields of knowledge. The Department of Chemistry offers three beginning courses or sequences. Chemistry 11, 12, 13 is a series of elementary courses for students who will take chemistry for one year or less, including students of agriculture, forestry, and some of the life science curricula. Chemistry 11 followed by Chemistry 13 is a sequence intended primarily for students of family life. Chemistry 24, 25, and 26 is the basic beginning sequence for students majoring in the physical and life sciences, engineering, the teaching of science, pre-medical, predental, and pre-pharmacy students, and all others who will take more than one year of chemistry. Civil and mechanical engineering students take Chemistry 24 and 25 only. Chemistry 11 and 12 are acceptable as transfer courses by some engineering schools to satisfy the chemistry requirements for the civil, electrical and mechanical engineering programs. A maximum of fifteen quarter hours in elementary chemistry (Chemistry 11, 12, 13, 24, 25, 26) will be accepted toward fulfilling graduation requirements. Placement Test—All students who plan to enroll in Chemistry 24 are required to take a chemistry placement test. The results of this test will be used to help determine the student's BACCALAUREATE DEGREE REQUIREMENTS The Department of Chemistry offers a major in chemistry leading to the B.A. or B.S. degree and a teaching major leading to the B.S. degree in secondary education. A departmental minor and a teaching minor are also offered. Departmental Major—Fifty quarter hours of chemistry, in addition to Chemistry 24, 25, and 26 are required, with specific courses as follows: Chemistry 51, 131, 132, 133, 139, 141, 142, 143, 151, 152, 171, 181, 197 (two hours minimum) and one course selected from the following: Chemistry 161, 162, 173, 174; in addition mathematics through Calculus, Physics 61, 62, 63, 64, 65, 66, and German 1, 2, 3 or equivalent are required. Additional courses in mathematics and physics are recommended for students who plan to do graduate work in physical chemistry. An overall average of C grade in courses taken in chemistry is required of all majors. Departmental Minor—A minimum of twenty-seven quarter hours with courses as follows: Chemistry 24, 25, 26, 131, 132, and at least one course selected from the following: Chemistry 51, 101, 105, 107, 133. Teaching Major—The teaching major consists of a minimum of forty-four quarter hours of chemistry with courses as follows: Chemistry 24, 25, 26, 51, 131, 132, 141 and at least three additional courses selected from the following: Chemistry 107, 133, 142, 143, 151, 181-182; in addition mathematics through Calculus, and Physics 61, 62, 63, 64, 65, 66. Teaching Minor—A minimum of twenty-eight quarter hours with courses as follows: Chemistry 24, 25, 26, 51, 131, 132. Composite Teaching Major in Physical Sciences—See Math- emathics and Physical Science composite teaching major, School of Education. Courses of Instruction 001. Elementary Principles of Chemistry—A non-laboratory preparatory course for students who must take Chemistry 24, but whose background is inadequate or who received an unsatisfactory score on the chemistry placement test.
