Physical Chemistry I (CHEM 3410) or Principles of Physical Chemistry (CHEM 3400)
Chemical Separations (CHEM 3310) or Instrumental Analysis (CHEM 3320)
Organic Spectral Analysis (CHEM 3123)
Literature of Chemistry (CHEM 4900)
Students pursuing a B.S. degree with a major in chemistry must satisfy two of their additional degree requirements with College Physics I with lab (PHYS 1203/1201) and II with lab
(PHYS 1213/1211) or General Physics I with lab (PHYS 1003/1001) and II with lab (PHYS 1013/1011). Students must take two additional electives from any chemistry, biology, physics,
or mathematics courses numbered above 3000.
A grade of C or higher is required in all courses required for a chemistry major.
Requirements for ACS certified Chemistry major: The Department of Chemistry is accredited through the American Chemical Society (ACS) to offer the ACS degree certification in chemistry. The ACS certified degree provides more in-depth training for those students who wish to pursue graduate studies in chemistry or other advanced studies. There are three ACS accredited degree track options: ACS Major--General Track, ACS Major--Biochemistry Track, and ACS Major--Organic Track. All ACS--Track students must take the following Introductory, Foundation, and Related courses as well as complete 400 hours of laboratory work beyond the Introductory course level. Undergraduate research hours can count towards the 400 hour requirement.
ACS Major--General Track students must take the following In-Depth courses: Organic Chemistry II with lab (CHEM 2120/2121), Organic Spectral Analysis (CHEM 3123), Instrumental Analysis (CHEM 3320), Physical Chemistry II (CHEM 3420), and two additional electives from any chemistry, biology, physics, or mathematics courses numbered above 3000. ACS Major--Biochemistry Track students must take the following In-Depth Courses: Organic Chemistry II with lab (CHEM 2120/2121), Biochemistry II (CHEM 3620), Molecular Cell Biology (BIOL 3300), Instrumental Analysis (CHEM 3320), and one additional elective from any chemistry, biology, physics, or mathematics courses numbered above 3000. ACS Major--Organic Track students must take the following In-Depth Courses: Organic Chemistry II with lab (CHEM 2120/2121), Organic Spectral Analysis (CHEM 3123), Instrumental Analysis (CHEM 3320), Advanced Organic Chemistry (CHEM 3110), and two
additional electives from any chemistry, biology, physics, or mathematics courses numbered above 3000.
A grade of C or higher is required in all courses required for an ACS certified major and the
student must maintain a 2.50 GPA in chemistry courses.
Requirements for Chemistry minor: Students may elect a minor in chemistry by taking the following courses:
A grade of C or higher is required in all courses required for a chemistry minor.
Requirements for Biochemistry major: All students pursuing a major in biochemistry must complete the following courses:
Students pursuing a B.S. degree with a major in biochemistry must satisfy two of their additional degree requirements with College Physics I with lab (PHYS 1203/1201) and II with lab (PHYS 1213/1211) or General Physics I with lab (PHYS 1003/1001) and II with lab (PHYS 1013/1011).
A grade of C or higher is required in all courses required for a biochemistry major.
