          Description<\/h2><\/span>\n

          The Chemistry\/Biochemistry Program gives students a solid foundation in analytical, organic, and physical chemistry, and emphasizes the central roles that chemistry plays in biology and the global environment. The biochemistry major provides additional insight into the relationship of chemistry to living organisms. Throughout the programs in chemistry and biochemistry, students acquire the knowledge and skills necessary to be successful in fields in which women are still underrepresented, and they gain the opportunity to explore options such as graduate school, medical school, or employment in the industrial and non-profit sectors.<\/p>\n

          Students in the College of Arts and Sciences may elect to pursue a B.S. degree in chemistry or biochemistry or a minor in either field.<\/p>\n

          [\/catalog-courses]All students should note that MATH 123 (can be taken concurrently) or MATH 108 is a pre-requisite\u00a0for CHEM 111, the Fundamentals of Chemistry course.<\/p>\n

          Students who elect to major in biochemistry may not minor in either biology or chemistry.<\/p>\n
