Minors Offered

The Department offers minors in Biochemistry and Chemistry. These minors prepare students to apply chemical concepts and practices in their major discipline.

The Biochemistry minor requires Chemistry 105, 113, 114, 201, 214 and a minimum of four additional credits of biochemistry.

The Chemistry minor requires Chemistry 105, 113, 114, 201, 214 and a minimum of four additional credits of advanced chemistry as approved by the Department faculty.

Additional options may be tailored to the student’s needs in consultation with the student’s advisor and the Department Chair. Students planning much work in chemistry should consult with a Departmental advisor as early as possible to plan the sequence of courses in chemistry, mathematics, physics and biology that will be to their greatest advantage. Many upper-level chemistry courses have calculus and physics courses as prerequisites. The sequence in secondary education also requires early planning to ensure proper spacing of education courses.
