Baccalaureate Degrees
The Bachelor of Science degree with a major in chemistry is available in two options. Option I is an American Chemical Society approved degree plan. Option II is designed for dual majors or for a major with a specific emphasis. Both degree plans are designed to prepare students for professional careers. The Option I major is for students desiring a professional career in chemistry, but is also useful as a pre-medical, pre-dental degree program. The Option II major also prepares students for professional careers. As a major program, it can be used for pre-medicine, pre-veterinarian, pre-dentistry, pre-pharmacy, or pre-physical therapy. This degree plan can also be used as part of a dual major program. The Option II degree plan allows a more directed program with proper selection of electives from other departments; possible emphases are biochemistry, polymer science, or environmental science.
The Bachelor of Science in Education with a major in chemistry is designed for the student desiring to prepare for secondary level chemistry teaching.
