Chemistry

Career opportunities in chemistry include health care, teaching, and government and industrial research.

Students can receive an American Chemical Society certified degree by completing the requirements for the professional chemistry track and also take CH 408. An alternative major is available for students pursuing health care careers such as medicine or dentistry or graduate school in biochemistry. Students wishing to prepare for teaching chemistry in secondary schools should complete a chemistry major and confer with the Division of Education concerning additional requirements in education.
