The Department of Chemistry, Biochemistry, and Physics provides an accelerated five-year dual-degree program, enabling eligible students to earn both a Bachelor of Science and Master of Science in Chemistry with a pharmaceutical chemistry focus. Students can pursue an ACS-accredited B.S. in Chemistry alongside the M.S. in Chemistry, with various undergraduate and graduate concentrations available, plus minor programs. Our facilities boast cutting-edge instrumentation such as 300 MHz NMR spectrometers, liquid chromatography systems, GC-MS analyzers, high-resolution FTIR, and Raman spectroscopy equipment. The Chemistry B.S. serves as the foundational degree for careers in chemical/pharmaceutical industries and advanced studies in chemistry, biochemistry, pharmaceutical sciences, biomedical engineering, and related fields. This program particularly benefits aspiring medical, pharmacy, and veterinary school applicants, with pre-med students typically taking the MCAT during their junior year following organic chemistry coursework.
