Course Information

If any of the following apply to you, you should explore a career in chemistry:

  • Are you fascinated by advances in technology?

  • Do you want to understand natural phenomena at both the micro- and macro-scale?

  • Do you have an interest in exploring the specific interactions of atoms or molecules?

  • Would you like to work with state-of-the-art instrumentation analyzing chemical samples?

  • Are you concerned with finding scientific solutions to address many societal issues?

Why a B.S. Chemistry?

  • All program options are certified by American Chemical Society (ACS).

  • The Biochemistry option follows the recommendations from the American Society for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology (ASBMB).
