The Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry holds full accreditation from the American Chemical Society (ACS) and provides ACS-approved Bachelor of Science degree programs. Students can enhance their studies with specialized tracks in biochemistry or coatings and polymeric materials. Those pursuing careers in medicine, dentistry, or similar fields can opt for the pre-professional pathway. Chemistry majors can also obtain secondary school teaching certification by completing just one extra semester for student teaching. The structured program delivers comprehensive training in all core chemistry disciplines through lectures and hands-on lab sessions. Advanced laboratory courses incorporate modern synthesis techniques, characterization methods, and cutting-edge computer-linked instruments. Our pre-professional track covers essential biological and biochemical coursework, fulfilling prerequisites for medical, dental, and health-related graduate programs. Choosing chemistry as a major provides both a strong foundation for professional studies and a valuable alternative career path if plans evolve.
