Broad Chemistry-based Background
The Bachelor of Arts in Chemistry provides a broad background in preparation for a chemistry-related career or career as a chemistry teacher.
Many students use the flexibility of the B.A. program to pursue a double major or to fulfill the requirements for entry into graduate programs such as medical, dental, veterinary and law schools.
Top-notch faculty deliver award-winning classroom instruction with student-centered research to provide an ideal environment for training tomorrow's scientists, physicians and teachers.
A significant portion of the training takes place in our laboratories, both those associated with courses and through supervised research in pharmaceutical chemistry, marine and atmospheric science, biochemistry, organic and inorganic synthesis, analytical chemistry, computational and physical chemistry, and chemical education.
Much of this research results in publications in peer-reviewed journals or presentations at professional meetings, most which have student co-authors.
